Function
May play a role in junctional plaques. -
Tissue specificity
Detected in heart right ventricle (at protein level). Widely expressed. Found at desmosomal plaques in simple and stratified epithelia and in non-epithelial tissues such as myocardium and lymph node follicles. In most stratified epithelia found in the desmosomes of the basal cell layer and seems to be absent from suprabasal strata. -
Involvement in disease
Familial arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 9 -
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the beta-catenin family.
Contains 8 ARM repeats. -
Cellular localization
Nucleus. Cell junction > desmosome. Nuclear and associated with desmosomes. - Information by UniProt
