The following text describes a protein:
Function:
Major high molecular weight protein of desmosomes. Regulates profibrotic gene expression in cardiomyocytes via activation of the MAPK14/p38 MAPK signaling cascade and increase in TGFB1 protein abundance.
Subcellular Localization:
Cell junction, desmosome. Cell membrane. Cytoplasm. Note=Localizes to desmosome precursor particles in the cytoplasm (By similarity). Localizes to the cytoplasm in undifferentiated keratinocytes however becomes localizes to both lateral and tricellular cell-cell contacts as differentiation progresses and as epithelial sheet formation completes (By similarity).
Domain:
The N-terminal region is required for localization to the desmosomal plaque and interacts with the N-terminal region of PKP1.
