Summary: Predicted to enable structural molecule activity. Involved in desmosome organization; establishment of skin barrier; and heart development. Acts upstream of or within fin regeneration and heart contraction. Predicted to be located in cytoskeleton; desmosome; and membrane. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm; intercalated disc; and plasma membrane. Predicted to colocalize with intermediate filament. Is expressed in several structures, including EVL; digestive system; ectoderm; epidermis; and pectoral fin. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Carvajal syndrome; arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy; arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 8; dilated cardiomyopathy; and keratosis palmoplantaris striata 2. Orthologous to human DSP (desmoplakin). [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.
