Dsg1 Polyclonal Antibody

Rabbit Anti-Dsg1 Polyclonal Antibody

Product Specifications

Background

DSG1 encodes a member of the desmoglein protein subfamily. Desmogleins, along with desmocollins, 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. DSG1 is found in a cluster with other desmoglein family members on chromosome 18. The encoded protein has been identified as a target of auto-antibodies in the autoimmune skin blistering disease pemphigus foliaceus. Disruption of DSG1 has also been associated with the skin diseases palmoplantar keratoderma and erythroderma.
