DSC2 - desmocollin 2 Gene
Also Known as DG2; DSC3; CDHF2; ARVD11; DGII/III
Species: Homo sapiens
About DSC2
This gene has 4 transcripts (splice variants), 232 orthologues, 6 paralogues and is associated with 5 phenotypes. Biased expression in esophagus (RPKM 95.9), colon (RPKM 34.9) and 8 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the desmocollin protein subfamily. Desmocollins, along with desmogleins, are cadherin-like transmembrane glycoproteins that are major components of the desmosome. Desmosomes are cell-cell junctions that help resist shearing forces and are found in high concentrations in cells subject to mechanical stress. This gene is found in a cluster with Other desmocollin family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in this gene are associated with arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia-11, and reduced protein expression has been described in several types of Cancer. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Feb 2015]
