Proteolysis of Liver Plectin by μ-Calpain

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1998
Rat liver plectin was found to be mainly associated with plasma membrane fractions enriched in junctional complexes. The membrane-associated plectin has been partially isolated. Plectin co-purifies with a 200 kDa polypeptide which, on the basis of sequence homology, has been identified as a myosin like-protein.

Plectin-related skin diseases

Journal of Dermatological Science, 2015
Plectin has been characterized as a linker protein that is expressed in many cell types and is distinctive in various isoforms in the N-terminus and around the rod domain due to complicated alternative splicing of PLEC, the gene encoding plectin. Plectin deficiency causes autosomal recessive epidermolysis bullosa simplex (EBS) with involvement of 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.

Structure and hydrodynamic properties of plectin molecules

Journal of Molecular Biology, 1987
Plectin is a cytoskeletal, high molecular weight protein of widespread and abundant occurrence in cultured cells and tissues. To study its molecular structure, the protein was purified from rat glioma C6 cells and subjected to chemical and biophysical analyses.

Plectin Deficiency Disease

1999
Just over 25 years ago, De Weerdt and Castelain [1] described the combination of progressive muscular weakness and dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa with an autosomal recessive pattern. Niemi et al. [2] described a Finnish sibship with normal parents and 12 members.

Expression of Pork Plectin during Postmortem Aging

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2019
The current study investigated the distribution and degradation of pork plectin during postmortem aging. Longissimus thoracis (LT) muscles from 12 pig carcasses were vacuum-packaged and aged at 4 °C for 0 h, 6 h, 12 h, 1 day, 3 days, 7 days, and 13 days. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that pork plectin was distributed in a honeycomb-like pattern in

Domain Structure and Transcript Diversity of Plectin

The Biological Bulletin, 1998
Plectin, a cytoskeleton-associated protein of exceptionally large size, is abundantly expressed in a wide variety of mammalian tissues and cell types. It is codistributed with different types of intermediate filaments (IFs) and is prominently located at the plasma membrane attachment sites of IFs and of microfilaments, such as hemidesmosomes (Wiche et ...

Plectin

1999
Abstract Plectin is a versatile cytoskeletal linker protein of high molecular weight (>500 000 Da) that is abundantly expressed in a wide variety of mammalian tissues and cell types. It interacts with all major cytoskeletal filament networks and is a major constituent of plasma membrane-associated junctional complexes (e.g ...

Plectin abnormality in epidermolysis bullosa simplex Ogna: non‐responsiveness of basal keratinocytes to some anti‐rat plectin antibodies

Experimental Dermatology, 1997
Abstract Epidermolysis bullosa (EB) is a heterogeneous group of genetic bullous skin diseases. The EB simplex group (EBS) is characterized by intraepidermal blistering. EBS‐Ogna was first described as a separate entity based on clinical studies. Later genetic linkage of EBS‐Ogna to the GPT locus for glutamate pyruvate transaminase (alanine transaminase)

Plectin deposition at podosome rings requires myosin contractility

Cell Motility, 2008
AbstractMetalloproteinase‐dependent tissue invasion requires the formation of podosomes and invadopodia for localized matrix degradation. Actin cytoskeleton remodeling via Arp2/3‐mediated actin polymerization is essential for podosome formation, and dynamic microtubules have an important role in maintaining podosome turnover in macrophages and ...
