    Glossary Plakophilin-1

    protein crucial for cell adhesion in skin and hair

    Plakophilin-1 (PKP1) is a protein that plays a crucial role in the formation and maintenance of desmosomes, which are structures that help cells stick together, particularly in tissues that experience a lot of stress, like the skin and heart. Mutations in the gene encoding Plakophilin-1 can lead to skin disorders and hair loss conditions, such as ectodermal dysplasia/skin fragility syndrome, highlighting its importance in maintaining the integrity of epithelial tissues.
