Developmental and Molecular Functions of Plakophilin-3
… cadherin cytoplasmic domains and enhances desmosome formation and stability. In mammals, plakophilin-3 is expressed at the highest levels in desmosome-enriched tissues such as epithelia, with the knock-out in mice producing corresponding reductions in ectodermal integrity. In tissue, …

Regulation of apoptosis and desmosomes by RhoE
… of desmosomal proteins and increased numbers of desmosomes. Resistance to apoptosis was shown to be a function of desmosome-mediated cell-cell adhesion and a component of demosomes – plakoglobin – was shown to play a key role in RhoE-mediated resistance to apoptosis.
