Also known as: dsc; dsg2; dsga; wu:fj23f02; si:dkeyp-51f12.6
Summary: Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Acts upstream of or within convergent extension involved in gastrulation; desmosome assembly; and epiboly involved in gastrulation with mouth forming second. Predicted to be located in desmosome and plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy; arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10; dilated cardiomyopathy; and dilated cardiomyopathy 1BB. Orthologous to human DSG2 (desmoglein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Nov 2024]

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
