Background

DSC-3 (Desmocollin [Greek for "glue-that-binds"]-3) is a 95-110 kDa member of the Ca⁺⁺-dependent cadherin family of adhesion molecules. It is found on the surface of stratified epithelial cells, including keratinized and nonkeratinized epithelia of the urinary bladder, vagina, oral cavity and skin. DSC-3 serves as a component of desmosomes, forming a linkage that unites adjacent cells with cytoplasmic intermediate filaments. In particular, in the extracellular space, DSC-3 forms both homotypic and heterotypic interactions with DSG-1 in-trans, and binds to the cytoskeleton intracellularly via plakophilin-3. Mature mouse DSC-3 is a 760 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane glycoprotein. The mature molecule contains a 560 aa extracellular region with five cadherin domains (aa 136-691), and a 179 aa cytoplasmic domain that possesses three utilized Ser phosphorylation sites. There is one splice variant that shows an eight aa substitution for aa 831-895. Over aa 136-695, mouse DSC-3 shares 79% and 93% aa identity with human and rat DSC-3, respectively.
