Protocadherin-17 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PCDH17 gene.{{cite journal |vauthors=Nollet F, Kools P, van Roy F | title = Phylogenetic analysis of the cadherin superfamily allows identification of six major subfamilies besides several solitary members | journal = J Mol Biol | volume = 299 | issue = 3 | pages = 551–72 |date=Jul 2000 | pmid = 10835267 | doi = 10.1006/jmbi.2000.3777 }}{{cite web | title = Entrez Gene: PCDH17 protocadherin 17| url = https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=27253}}

This gene belongs to the protocadherin gene family, a subfamily of the cadherin superfamily. The encoded protein contains six extracellular cadherin domains, a transmembrane domain, and a cytoplasmic tail differing from those of the classical cadherins. The encoded protein may play a role in the establishment and function of specific cell-cell connections in the brain. PCDH17 promoter methylation is found to be closely associated with bladder cancer malignancy {{cite journal | author = Wang XB | title = Protocadherin 17 promoter methylation in tumour tissue from patients with bladder transitional cell carcinoma. | journal = J Int Med Res | volume = 42 | issue = 2|date=Apr 2014 | pmid = 24567353 | pages = 292–9 | doi=10.1177/0300060513504364| s2cid = 38799502 | doi-access = free }}
