About Dsg2

Summary

Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity and cell adhesion molecule binding activity. Involved in maternal process involved in female pregnancy and response to progesterone. Located in apical plasma membrane and lateral plasma membrane. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 10 and dilated cardiomyopathy 1BB. Orthologous to human DSG2 (desmoglein 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
