-  Comments and Description Text from UniProtKB
  ID: PKP3_HUMAN
DESCRIPTION: RecName: Full=Plakophilin-3;
FUNCTION: May play a role in junctional plaques.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Nucleus. Cell junction, desmosome. Note=Nuclear and associated with desmosomes.
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Found in desmosomes of most simple and stratified epithelia. Not found in foreskin fibroblasts and various sarcoma-derived cell lines. Beside dendritic reticular cells of lymphatic follicles not found in non-epithelial desmosome-bearing tissues.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the beta-catenin family.
SIMILARITY: Contains 8 ARM repeats.

-  Primer design for this transcript
 

Primer3Plus can design qPCR Primers that straddle exon-exon-junctions, which amplify only cDNA, not genomic DNA.
Click here to load the transcript sequence and exon structure into Primer3Plus

Exonprimer can design one pair of Sanger sequencing primers around every exon, located in non-genic sequence.

The pictures above may be empty if there is no ModBase structure for the protein. The ModBase structure frequently covers just a fragment of the protein. You may be asked to log onto ModBase the first time you click on the pictures. It is simplest after logging in to just click on the picture again to get to the specific info on that model.

-  Orthologous Genes in Other Species
  Orthologies between human, mouse, and rat are computed by taking the best BLASTP hit, and filtering out non-syntenic hits. For more distant species reciprocal-best BLASTP hits are used. Note that the absence of an ortholog in the table below may reflect incomplete annotations in the other species rather than a true absence of the orthologous gene.
