High impact information on Pkp3

  • Together, these results show that PKP3, whose epithelial and epidermal desmosomal expression pattern and protein interaction repertoire are broader than those of PKP1 and -2, is a unique multiprotein binding element in the basic architecture of a vast majority of epithelial desmosomes [1].
  • Western blot analysis of plakophilin-3 revealed expression in all epithelial cell lines tested but not in foreskin fibroblasts and various sarcoma-derived cell lines [2].
