Plectin-Isoform-Specific Rescue of Hemidesmosomal Defects in Plectin (–/–) Keratinocytes [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Investigative Dermatology, 2003
The various plectin isoforms are among the major crosslinking elements of the cytoskeleton. The importance of plectin in epithelia is convincingly supported by the severe skin blistering observed in plectin-deficient humans and mice. Here, we identified plectin 1a (> 500 kDa), a full length plectin variant containing the sequence encoded by the ...

The Versatility of Plectin in Cancer: A Pan-Cancer Analysis on Potential Diagnostic and Prognostic Impacts of Plectin Isoforms

OMICS A Journal of Integrative Biology, 2023
Plectin, encoded by PLEC , is a cytoskeletal and scaffold protein with a number of unique isoforms that act on various cellular functions such as cell adhesion, signal transduction, cancer cell invasion, and migration.

Interaction of plectin and intermediate filaments

Journal of Dermatological Science, 2012
Plectin, a member of the plakin family proteins, is a high molecular weight protein that is ubiquitously expressed. It acts as a cytolinker for the three major components of the cyotoskeleton, namely actin microfilaments, microtubules and intermediate filaments.The aim of our experiments was to identify new binding sites for intermediate filaments on ...

Plectin: A Cytolinker by Design

Biological Chemistry, 1999
AbstractPlectin is a cytoskeletal protein of > 500 kDa that forms dumbbell-shaped homodimers comprising a central parallel α-helical coiled coil rod domain flanked by globular domains, thus providing a molecular backbone ideally suited to mediate the protein's interactions with an array of other cytoskeletal elements.
