Function

A component of desmosome cell-cell junctions which are required for positive regulation of cellular adhesion (PubMed:31835537). Required for adherens and desmosome junction assembly in response to mechanical force in keratinocytes (PubMed:31835537). Required for desmosome-mediated cell-cell adhesion of cells surrounding the telogen hair club and the basal layer of the outer root sheath epithelium, consequently is essential for the anchoring of telogen hairs in the hair follicle (PubMed:9701552). Required for the maintenance of the epithelial barrier via promoting desmosome-mediated intercellular attachment of suprabasal epithelium to basal cells (By similarity). May play a role in the protein stability of the desmosome plaque components DSP, JUP, PKP1, PKP2 and PKP3 (PubMed:22294297). Required for YAP1 localization at the plasma membrane in keratinocytes in response to mechanical strain, via the formation of an interaction complex composed of DSG3, PKP1 and YWHAG (PubMed:31835537). May also be involved in the positive regulation of YAP1 target gene transcription and as a result cell proliferation (PubMed:31835537). Positively regulates cellular contractility and cell junction formation via organization of cortical F-actin bundles and anchoring of actin to tight junctions, in conjunction with RAC1 (PubMed:22796473). The cytoplasmic pool of DSG3 is required for the localization of CDH1 and CTNNB1 at developing adherens junctions, potentially via modulation of SRC activity (PubMed:22294297). Inhibits keratinocyte migration via suppression of p38MAPK signaling, may therefore play a role in moderating wound healing (PubMed:26763450).

Activity summary

Desmoglein 3 (DSG3) also known as anti-DSG3 is an important component in maintaining cellular adhesion within epithelial tissues. It belongs to the cadherin family and has a mass of approximately 130 kDa. You will find DSG3 expressed mainly in epithelial cells particularly in the skin and mucosal linings. As a transmembrane glycoprotein DSG3 interacts with other desmoglein proteins such as desmoglein 1 to form desmosomes which are essential for the mechanical coupling of cells.

Biological function summary

This protein plays a fundamental role in cell adhesion by contributing to the integrity and strength of desmosomes. These are multi-protein complexes that secure cell-to-cell attachments in tissues exposed to mechanical stress. Within the desmosomes DSG3 interacts closely with other proteins including plakoglobin and plakophilins ensuring the stability of the cellular junctions. This makes DSG3 an integral part of maintaining tissue structure and resilience.

Pathways

Desmoglein 3 participates notably in the WNT signaling pathway and is involved in pathways associated with cell adhesion. In these pathways its interaction with plakoglobin which is also known as gamma-catenin plays an important role. This interaction influences signaling processes that modulate cellular adhesion and proliferation. Desmosomes facilitated by DSG3 are connective points in epidermal growth regulation pathways emphasizing DSG3's involvement in cellular cohesion and communication.

Associated diseases and disorders

Desmoglein 3 is strongly linked to the autoimmune disease pemphigus vulgaris. In this condition autoantibodies target DSG3 disrupting its function in desmosomes and leading to blistering of the skin and mucous membranes. Desmoglein 3's relationship with desmoglein 1 is also relevant in the disease process as these proteins' shared function in cell adhesion becomes compromised. Therefore understanding DSG3's interactions and functions is vital for exploring therapeutic strategies in treating such disorders.
