Protein Coding Gene : Dsc1 desmocollin 1

Primary Identifier  MGI:109173 Organism  mouse, laboratory
Chromosome  18 NCBI Gene Number  13505
Mgi Type  protein coding gene
description  FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0)

Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in cell-cell adhesion. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell adhesion. Located in desmosome. Is expressed in epithelium and skin. Orthologous to human DSC1 (desmocollin 1).
PHENOTYPE: Mutants with targeted disruptions of this gene have fragile epidermis, flaky skin, and defects in the epidermal barrier, leading to chronic dermatitis and display abnormal epidermal differentiation as indicated by hyperproliferation and overxpression of keratin 6 and 16.
