Plakophilins 1, 2, 3 and 4 (PKP1-4) influence development and participate in linking cadherins to cytoskeletal intermediate filaments.
Plakophilins 1-4 contain arm-repeat (armadillo) domains and localize to nuclei and cell desmosomes (cell-cell junctions found in suprabasal layers of stratifying epithelia that undergo mechanical stress).
Plakophilin 1 mediates increases in desmosomal protein content, desmosome assembly and regulation of cell migration.
Plakophilin 2 is important for desmosome assembly and is an essential morphogenic factor and architectural component of the heart.
Plakophilin 4 is a component of desmosomal adhesion plaques that regulates junctional plaque organization and cadherin function.
