Cell adhesion in desmosomes

Desmoplakin is a protein associated with desmosomes.[1]

Desmoplakin is a protein that in humans is encoded by the DSP gene.[2][3]

Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that tightly link adjacent cells. Desmoplakin is an obligate component of functional desmosomes that anchors intermediate filaments to desmosomal plaques. The N-terminus of desmoplakin is required for localization to the desmosome and interacts with the N-terminal region of plakophilin 1 and plakoglobin. This is further sub divided into a region called the "Plakin domain" made up of repetitive domains called Spectrin repeats. A crystal structure of part of the plakin domain has been resolved[4] , while the entire plakin domain has been elucidated using Small angle X-ray scattering which revealed a non-linear structure, an unexpected result considering spectrin repeats are observed in linear orientations[5]. The C-terminus of desmoplakin binds with intermediate filaments. These are further sub divided to three homologous Plakin repeat domains (see PDBs below). In the mid-region of desmoplakin, a coiled-coiled rod domain is responsible for homodimerization. Mutations in this gene are the cause of several cardiomyopathies and keratodermas as well as the autoimmune disease paraneoplastic pemphigus.[3]
