| Function | A component of desmosome cell-cell junctions which are required for positive regulation of cellular adhesion. Required for cell-cell adhesion in the epidermis, as a result required for the maintenance of the dermal cohesion and the dermal barrier function. Required for cell-cell adhesion of epithelial cell layers surrounding the telogen hair club, as a result plays an important role in telogen hair shaft anchorage. Essential for successful completion of embryo compaction and embryo development. |
