    Summary
    Predicted to enable calcium ion binding activity. Predicted to be involved in bundle of His cell-Purkinje myocyte adhesion involved in cell communication; regulation of heart rate by cardiac conduction; and regulation of ventricular cardiac muscle cell action potential. Predicted to act upstream of or within cellular response to starvation. Predicted to be located in several cellular components, including adherens junction; endoplasmic reticulum; and intercalated disc. Predicted to be active in desmosome. Biomarker of acute myocardial infarction and dilated cardiomyopathy. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy and arrhythmogenic right ventricular dysplasia 11. Orthologous to human DSC2 (desmocollin 2).

    RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

    These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

    These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
