DSC2 Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-DSC2 Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

DSC2 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. DSC2 is found in a cluster with other desmocollin family members on chromosome 18. Mutations in DSC2 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.
