About This Section

Entrez Gene summary for DSP:
Desmosomes are intercellular junctions that tightly link adjacent cells. Desmoplakin is an obligate component of
functional desmosomes that anchors intermediate filaments to desmosomal plaques. The N-terminus of desmoplakin is
required for localization to the desmosome and interacts with the N-terminal region of plakophilin 1 and plakoglobin.
The C-terminus of desmoplakin binds with intermediate filaments. In the mid-region of desmoplakin, a coiled-coiled rod
domain is responsible for homodimerization. Mutations in this gene are the cause of several cardiomyopathies and
keratodermas as well as the autoimmune disease paraneoplastic pemphigus. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: DESP_HUMAN, P15924
Function: Major high molecular weight protein of desmosomes. Involved in the organization of the desmosomal
cadherin-plakoglobin complexes into discrete plasma membrane domains and in the anchoring of intermediate filaments to
the desmosomes

  • Ser-2849 is probably phosphorylated by a cAMP-dependent protein kinase. Phosphorylation on Ser-2849 probably affects
  • its association with epidermal, simple cytokeratins and VIM intermediate filaments1
  • Substrate of transglutaminase. Some glutamines and lysines are cross-linked to other desmoplakin molecules, to other
  • proteins such as keratin, envoplakin, periplakin and involucrin, and to lipids like omega-hydroxyceramide1

  • Defects in DSP are the cause of palmoplantar keratoderma striate type 2 (SPPK2) [MIM:612908]; also known as
  • keratosis palmoplantaris striata II. SPPK2 is characterized by skin thickening in the palms (linear pattern) and the
    soles (island-like pattern) and flexor aspect of the fingers. Abnormalities of the nails, the teeth and the hair are
    rarely present
  • Defects in DSP are the cause of cardiomyopathy dilated with woolly hair and keratoderma (DCWHK) [MIM:605676];
  • also known as Carvajal syndrome or palmoplantar keratoderma with left ventricular cardiomyopathy and woolly hair.
    DCWHK is an autosomal recessive cardiocutaneous syndrome characterized by a generalized striate keratoderma
    particularly affecting the palmoplantar epidermis, woolly hair, and dilated left ventricular cardiomyopathy
  • Defects in DSP are the cause of familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia type 8 (ARVD8)
  • [MIM:607450]; also known as arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy 8 (ARVC8). ARVD is an autosomal dominant
    disease characterized by partial degeneration of the myocardium of the right ventricle, electrical instability, and
    sudden death. It is clinically defined by electrocardiographic and angiographic criteria; pathologic findings,
    replacement of ventricular myocardium with fatty and fibrous elements, preferentially involve the right ventricular
    free wall
  • Defects in DSP are the cause of skin fragility-woolly hair syndrome (SFWHS) [MIM:607655]. SFWHS is an
  • autosomal recessive genodermatosis characterized by focal and diffuse palmoplantar keratoderma, hyperkeratotic plaques
    on the trunk and limbs, and woolly hair with varying degrees of alopecia
  • Defects in DSP are the cause of epidermolysis bullosa lethal acantholytic (EBLA) [MIM:609638]. EBLA is
  • characterized by severe fragility of skin and mucous membranes. The phenotype is lethal in the neonatal period because
    of immense transcutaneous fluid loss. Typical features include universal alopecia, neonatal teeth, and nail loss.
    Histopathology of the skin shows suprabasal clefting and acantholysis throughout the spinous layer, mimicking
    pemphigus
