Human Gene Set: GOCC_DESMOSOME

For the Mouse gene set with the same name, see GOCC_DESMOSOME

Standard name GOCC_DESMOSOME
Systematic name M17581
Brief description A cell-cell junction in which: on the cytoplasmic surface of each interacting plasma membrane is a dense plaque composed of a mixture of intracellular anchor proteins; a bundle of keratin intermediate filaments is attached to the surface of each plaque; transmembrane adhesion proteins of the cadherin family bind to the plaques and interact through their extracellular domains to hold the adjacent membranes together by a Ca2+-dependent mechanism.
