General annotation (Comments)

Function

Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion.

Subcellular location

Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell junctiondesmosome.

Tissue specificity

All of the tissues tested and carcinomas.

Domain

Calcium may be bound by the cadherin-like repeats Potential.

Involvement in disease

Defects in DSG2 are the cause of familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 (ARVD10) [MIM:610193]; also known as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy 10 (ARVC10). ARVD is an autosomal dominant disease characterized by partial degeneration of the myocardium of the right ventricle, electrical instability, and sudden death. It is clinically defined by electrocardiographic and angiographic criteria; pathologic findings, replacement of ventricular myocardium with fatty and fibrous elements, preferentially involve the right ventricular free wall. Ref.13

Sequence similarities

Contains 4 cadherin domains.
