Crystal structure of human Desmocollin-1 ectodomainCrystal structure of human Desmocollin-1 ectodomain
Structural highlights
Function[DSC1_HUMAN] Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion. May contribute to epidermal cell positioning (stratification) by mediating differential adhesiveness between cells that express different isoforms. Linked to the keratinization of epithelial tissues. |
