Description Desmocollin 2 is a calcium dependent glycoprotein that is a member of the desmocollinsubfamily of the cadherin superfamily. These desmosomal family members, along with thedesmogleins, are found primarily in epithelial cells where they constitute the adhesiveproteins of the desmosome cell-cell junction and are required for cell adhesion anddesmosome formation. Mutations in Desmocollin 2 are associated with arrhythmogenicright ventricular dysplasia 11. Alternative splicing results in two transcript variantsencoding distinct isoforms.
Specificity Reacts with Desmocollin 2a and 2b (splice forms, mw 78 535, corresponding to 712 aminoacids). Localization: All desmosome-possessing cell types, including epithelia, myocardiac cellsand lymph nodes and neoplasia derived therefrom. Species: Human and Bovine. Others not tested.
