Structure of the Intermediate Filament-Binding Region of Desmoplakin.

Structure of the Intermediate Filament-Binding Region of Desmoplakin.

Desmoplakin (DP) is a cytoskeletal linker protein that connects the desmosomal cadherin/plakoglobin/plakophilin complex to intermediate filaments (IFs). The C-terminal region of DP (DPCT) mediates IF binding, and contains three plakin repeat domains (PRDs), termed PRD-A, PRD-B and PRD-C. Previous cr...
