Anti-Desmoplakin/DSP Antibody Picoband® Fluoro488 Conjugated

Product Specifications

Background

Desmoplakin is a protein in humans that is encoded by the DSP gene. This gene encodes a protein that anchors intermediate filaments to desmosomal plaques and forms an obligate component of functional desmosomes. Mutations in this gene are the cause of several cardiomyopathies and keratodermas, including skin fragility-woolly hair syndrome. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Synonyms

Desmoplakin; DP; 250/210 kDa paraneoplastic pemphigus antigen; DSP

Function

Major high molecular weight protein of desmosomes. Involved in the organization of the desmosomal cadherin- plakoglobin complexes into discrete plasma membrane domains and in the anchoring of intermediate filaments to the desmosomes.
