Description

General description

Desmocollin-2, also known as Desmocollin-3 or Desmosomal glycoprotein II, or Desmosomal glycoprotein III, and encoded by the gene DSC2/CDHF2/DSC3, is a component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Desmocollin-2 is involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments that mediate cell-cell adhesion and interacts with DSP, PKP2 and JUP proteins. Additionally, Desmocollin-2 is important for epidermal cell positioning and stratification because it mediates the differential adhesiveness between cells that express different isoforms. Desmocollin-2 is localized to the cell membrane at cell junctions and desmosomes. Desmocollin-2 is expressed in epithelia, myocardium and lymph nodes. Defects in Desmocollin-2 may be associated with Familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 11 (ARVD11) a congenital heart disease characterized by infiltration of adipose and fibrous tissue into the right ventricle and loss of myocardial cells, resulting in ventricular and supraventricular arrhythmias.
