Background

DSC2/Desmocollin-2 protein is a critical component of intercellular desmosome junctions, playing a crucial role in facilitating cell-cell adhesion by mediating the interaction between plaque proteins and intermediate filaments. In addition to its adhesive function, DSC2 may also contribute to epidermal cell positioning by regulating the adhesiveness between cells expressing different isoforms. This protein interacts with DSP, PKP2, and JUP, further reinforcing the stability and integrity of these junctions. By participating in these molecular interactions, DSC2/Desmocollin-2 protein ensures the proper organization and functionality of tissues.
