Background: Desmoplakin

DSP (desmoplakin) is the major high molecular weight protein of desmosomes, the most common type of intercellular junction in vertebrate epithelial cells.  DSP is involved in the organization of the desmosomal cadherin-plakoglobin complex, as well as in the anchoring of intermediate filaments to desmosomes.  These functions are thought to impart tensile strength and integrity to epithelial and vascular tissues.  Mutations in DSP result in several clinical phenotypes, ranging from mild skin conditions, to severe skin blistering with subsequent dehydration, to lethal heart defects.  Two major desmoplakin isoforms, DSPI and DSPII, are encoded by alternative mRNA transcripts differentially spliced from the same gene.  Human DSPI is 2,871 amino acids (aa) in length, while DSPII lacks part of a
central alpha-helical rod domain, and is 599 aa shorter.
