Disease relevance of DDN

  • A total of 55 joints was studied: 32 were diagnosed as displaced disc with reduction [DDR], 10 were diagnosed as displaced disc without reduction [DDN], and 13 were diagnosed as degenerative joint disease [DJD] [1].
 

High impact information on DDN

  • In a yeast two hybrid screen with the human isoform of Dendrin (KIAA0749), a putative modulator of the postsynaptic cytoskeleton, we isolated a cDNA coding for a novel protein, KIBRA, possessing two amino-terminal WW domains, an internal C2-like domain and a carboxy-terminal glutamic acid-rich stretch [2].
  • A search for MAGI-1-interacting proteins by yeast two-hybrid screening of a kidney cDNA library yielded dendrin [3].
  • The first SH3 domain and the C-terminal region of CIN85 bind to the proline-rich region and the N-terminal region of dendrin, respectively [3].
