About This Section
Entrez Gene summary for PKP2 Gene:
This gene encodes a member of the arm-repeat (armadillo) and plakophilin gene families. Plakophilin proteins
contain numerous armadillo repeats, localize to cell desmosomes and nuclei, and participate in linking cadherins
to intermediate filaments in the cytoskeleton. This gene product may regulate the signaling activity of
beta-catenin. Two alternately spliced transcripts encoding two protein isoforms have been identified. A processed
pseudogene with high similarity to this locus has been mapped to chromosome 12p13. (provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008)

GeneCards Summary for PKP2 Gene: 
PKP2 (plakophilin 2) is a protein-coding gene. Diseases associated with PKP2 include familial isolated arrhythmogenic ventricular dysplasia, biventricular form, and arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia/cardiomyopathy 9, and among its related super-pathways are Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) and Cytoskeleton remodeling Keratin filaments. GO annotations related to this gene include protein kinase C binding and molecular_function. An important paralog of this gene is PKP1.

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PKP2_HUMAN, Q99959
Function: May play a role in junctional plaques

    Genevestigator expression for PKP2

    SOURCE GeneReport for Unigene cluster: Hs.164384

    UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: PKP2_HUMAN, Q99959
    Tissue specificity: Detected in heart right ventricle (at protein level). Widely expressed. Found at desmosomal
    plaques in simple and stratified epithelia and in non-epithelial tissues such as myocardium and lymph node
    follicles. In most stratified epithelia found in the desmosomes of the basal cell layer and seems to be absent
    from suprabasal strata
