Abstract:

In most epithelia, desmosomes are important adhesion structures which have a key role in linking the intermediate filament network of one cell to its neighbor, thus forming a strong bond. These junctions are essential for retaining the integrity of organs, subject to mechanical stress, particularly the heart and skin. Desmogleins and desmocollins belong to super family of cadherin, which mediate adhesion at desmosomes. Through a series of protein interactions, desmosomal cadherin tails get associated with Cytoplasmic components of the desmosome, the sites of desmosome assemblage are employed w

Abstract:

Desmosomes are unique intercellular junctions in that they invariably contain two types of transmembrane cadherin molecule, desmocollins and desmogleins. In addition they possess a distinct cytoplasmic plaque structure containing a few major proteins including desmoplakins and the armadillo family member plakoglobin. Desmosomal cadherins are putative cell-cell adhesion molecules and we have tested their adhesive capacity using a transfection approach in mouse L cells. We find that L cells expressing either one or both of the desmosomal cadherins desmocollin 2a or desmoglein 1 display weak cell

We have discovered a third bovine desmocollin gene, DSC3, and studied expression of all three desmocollin genes, DSC1, 2, and 3, by Northern blotting, RT-PCR and in situ hybridization. DSC1 is strongly expressed in epidermis and tongue papillae, showing a "skin"-type pattern resembling that previously described for keratins 1 and 10. Expression is absent from the epidermal basal layer but appears in the immediate suprabasal layers and continues uniformly to the lower granular layer. In tongue epithelium, expression is suprabasal and strictly localized to papillae, being absent from interpapill

Abstract:

Recent biochemical and molecular approaches have begun to establish the protein interactions that lead to desmosome assembly. To determine whether these associations occur in native desmosomes we have performed ultrastructural localisation of specific domains of the major desmosomal components and have used the results to construct a molecular map of the desmosomal plaque. Antibodies directed against the amino- and carboxy-terminal domains of desmoplakin, plakoglobin and plakophilin 1, and against the carboxy-terminal domains of desmoglein 3, desmocollin 2a and desmocollin 2b, were used for im

Abstract:

Desmocollins are cadherin-like glycoproteins involved in cell adhesion and plaque formation in desmosome junctions. Three distinct isoforms, the products of different genes, have been found in bovine tissues. We have reported previously that one of these, DSC3, is expressed only in basal and lower suprabasal layers of stratified epithelia. Using RT-PCR we have now obtained the complete cDNA coding sequence of mature bovine DSC3. It has alternatively spliced ‘a’ and ‘b’ forms found in other desmocollins but is unique in having a 43 instead of a 46 base pair exon. We have characterised a monoclo

Abstract:

Desmosomes are intercellular adhesive junctions that impart strength to vertebrate tissues. Their dense, ordered intercellular attachments are formed by desmogleins (Dsgs) and desmocollins (Dscs), but the nature of trans-cellular interactions between these specialized cadherins is unclear. Here, using solution biophysics and coated-bead aggregation experiments, we demonstrate family-wise heterophilic specificity: All Dsgs form adhesive dimers with all Dscs, with affinities characteristic of each Dsg:Dsc pair.

Desmosomes are the adhesion proteins that function both as an adhesive complex and as a cell surface attachment site for keratin intermediate filaments of the cytoskeleton. Desmosomes are more widely distributed along the lateral membranes. Desmosomes contain two types of transmembrane proteins desmogleins and desmocollins which belong to cadherin family. These desmosomal cadherins are linked to the keratin cytoskeleton via several cytoplasmic proteins such as desmoplakin and plakoglobin.

Abstract:

Desmosomes are a complex assembly of protein molecules that mediate adhesion between adjacent cells. Desmosome composition is well established and spatial relationships between components have been identified. Intercellular cell-cell adhesion is created by the interaction of extracellular domains of desmosomal cadherins, namely, desmocollins and desmogleins. High-resolution methods have provided insight into the structural interactions between cadherins. However, there is a lack of understanding about the architecture of the intact desmosomes and the physical principles behind their adhesive s

The Dsg subclass of desmosomal cadherins contains a C-terminal unique region (Dsg unique region [DUR]) with unknown function. In this paper, we show that the DUR of Dsg2 stabilized Dsg2 at the cell surface by inhibiting its internalization and promoted strong intercellular adhesion.

Abstract:

Desmosomes are special adhesion structures connecting epithelial cells. The formation of desmosome plaques requires the participation of multiple molecules including desmoplakin (DP), plakoglobin (PG), desmocollins (DSC), and desmogleins (Dsg). It is known that Dsg has functional domains involved in cell-cell adhesions and plaque-cytoskeleton interactions. Functional modulation of Dsg is known to be related to some skin disorders exhibiting desmosome abnormalities. To better understand the role of Dsg 3 in the assembly of epidermal desmosomes and its possible relation to cutaneous disorders, w

Abstract:

Paraneoplastic pemphigus (PNP), an autoimmune mucocutaneous disorder involving the oral and bronchial mucosae, is a rare complication of hematologic malignancy. Serologically, serum autoantibodies against varied desmosome-related proteins are of notice. PNP is often lethal due to bronchiolitis obliterans and opportunistic infection. A 70-year-old Japanese male complained of dry cough, stomatitis, and sore throat. The lips and oral mucosa were severely eroded, and skin eruptions were seen on the chest and abdomen. The biopsy features were consistent with PNP, and the deposition of IgG and IgM w

Abstract:

Desmocollins (Dscs) and desmogleins (Dsgs) are cell-adhesion molecules involved in the formation of desmosome cell—cell junctions and share structural similarities to classical cadherins such as E-cadherin. In order to identify and provide quantitative information on the types of protein—protein interactions displayed by the type 2 isoforms and investigate the role of Ca2+ in this process, we have developed an Escherichia coli expression system to generate recombinant proteins containing the first two extracellular domains, namely Dsg2(1-2) and Dsc2(1-2).

Abstract:

beta-catenin and plakoglobin are members of the armadillo family of proteins and were first identified as components of intercellular adhering junctions. In the adherens junction beta-catenin and plakoglobin serve to link classical cadherins to the actin-based cytoskeleton. In the desmosome plakoglobin links the desmosomal cadherins, the desmogleins and the desmocollins, to the intermediate filament cytoskeleton. beta-catenin is not a component of the desmosome. Previously we have shown that the central armadillo repeat region of plakoglobin is the site for desmosomal cadherin binding. We hypo

Abstract:

Developing kidneys of human and murine fetuses have been stained with monoclonal antibodies to desmosomal proteins 1 and 2 (desmoplakins) (dp 1&2), desmosomal glycoprotein 1 (desmoglein) and a polyclonal antiserum to desmosomal glycoproteins 2 and 3 (desmocollins). All three antibodies stain the mesenchymal condensates that represent the first stage in kidney tubule development, indicating that desmosomal antigens are expressed very early in tubule morphogenesis. Desmosomal antigens are continuously expressed throughout the developing tubule being concentrated at the apical and basal regio

Abstract:

Previous work has shown that cultured keratinocytes do not form desmosomes at low [Ca2+] (less than 0.1 mM) but may be induced to do so by raising [Ca2+] to physiological levels (1.8-2 mM). Here, fluorescent antibody staining with specific anti-desmosomal antibodies and electron microscopy have been used to determine whether Ca2+-induced desmosome formation also occurs in simple epithelial cells. Both Madin-Darby canine and bovine kidney cells (MDCK and MDBK) exhibit Ca2+-induced desmosome formation, but there are significant differences between them. MDCK cells resemble keratinocytes in showi

Abstract:

The development or maturation of intercellular adhesions following their initiation has received very little attention even though this is an area of significance for a variety of in vivo processes. Using Ca2(+)-induced desmosome formation in MDCK cells as a study system it is shown that, following its initiation, desmosome formation continues for many hours. Following Ca2+ switching the major desmosomal glycoproteins, dg2/3a,b (desmocollins), accumulate progressively at the cell surface. Accumulation is first detectable within 45 min, but continues linearly for approximately 16 h, reaching a
