The Desmoglein 2 interactome in primary neonatal cardiomyocytes
Open accessPreprint — published as 10.1242/jcs.264213 · Paper page
Abstract
Mechanical coupling and chemical communication between cardiomyocytes are facilitated through a specialized adhesive structure known as the intercalated disc (ICD). The ICD is essential for heart organization and contraction. Yet, the network of adhesion, adaptor, and signaling proteins that form the ICD remains poorly defined. Here, we combined proximity labeling and quantitative mass spectrometry to identify proteins associated with the desmosomal cadherin, Desmoglein 2 (DSG2), in cultured neonatal cardiomyocytes. We identified over 300 proteins in the DSG2 interactome; half of which are shared with the N-cadherin (CDH2) interactome in cardiomyocytes. Proteins unique to DSG2 include the gap junction protein connexin 43 and the plakin family of cytolinker proteins. Comparison of the cardiomyocyte DSG2 interactome with the interactomes of desmosomal proteins from epithelia revealed only a small number of shared proteins. In cardiomyocytes, plakoglobin (JUP) and plakophilin 2 (PKP2) were the most abundant shared proteins between the DSG2 and CDH2 interactomes. PKP2 is a dynamic protein whose membrane recruitment in cardiomyocytes is tension-dependent. Our analysis of the DSG2 interactome provides a critical new dimension to the proteomic atlas of the essential molecular complexes required for cardiomyocyte adhesion.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
