UniProt data
UniProt name: DSC1_HUMAN (Q08554)
Gene name: DSC1; Synonyms=CDHF1
Organism: Homo sapiens (Human).
Function: Component of intercellular desmosome junctions. Involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion. May contribute to epidermal cell positioning (stratification) by mediating differential adhesiveness between cells that express different isoforms. Linked to the keratinization of epithelial tissues.
Subcellular location: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein. Cell junction, desmosome.
Transmembrane domains:
- 692-714, 23 AA, Helical. {ECO:0000255}.
Sequence: 894 AA
