8.A.204.1.5
Desmocollin-2, DSC2, of 901 aas with two TMSs, one N-terminal and the other at residue position 710.  It is a component of intercellular desmosome junctions and is involved in the interaction of plaque proteins and intermediate filaments mediating cell-cell adhesion. It may contribute to epidermal cell positioning (stratification) by mediating differential adhesiveness between cells that express different isoforms. It is alterred in amounts following acute kidney injury following Covid-19 infection (Paranjpe et al. 2023). In addition to other members of family 8.A.204, it contains a domain homologous to those in cadherin (TC# 9.A.14.6.4) and protocadherin (TC# 1.A.17.4.13). Cardiomyopathy-related desmocollin-2 prodomain variants affect the intracellular cadherin transport and processing (Pohl et al. 2023).
