To tease out the function of desmosomes in cell signaling and migration, Dubash has concentrated on a few of the individual protein components. In a study published in 2018, Dubash and four of his undergraduate researchers showed that the protein Desmoplakin, a part of the desmosome that is inside the cell, helps coordinate cellular migration.

For proteins detected in every sample, significantly decreased abundance (determined by TMT tag count at the spectral peak) of the desmosome proteins desmoglein-1 (DSG1) (Log2FC − 0.26, p = 0.02), desmocollin-1 (DSC1) (− 0.27, p = 0.02) and junctional plakoglobin (JUP) (− 0.23, p = 0.04), and increased abundance of KRT6A (0.68, p = 0.01) was observed when the BPD and No BPD groups were compared (Table 2). No significant differences were noted for DSG1, DSC1 and JUP between the No BPD and Term groups (Fig. 2).

Mutations in genes that form the desmosome are the most common cause of the cardiac disease arrhythmogenic cardiomyopathy (ACM), which affects one in 2,000 to 5,000 people worldwide. Researchers from the group of Eva van ...

The researchers discovered that iASPP had a previously unknown role in controlling desmosomes – one of the main structures that 'glue' individual heart muscle cells (cardiomyocytes) together. The genetic defect was shown to weaken desmosome function at the junctions of heart muscle cells: this affected the structural integrity of the heart, making mice lacking iASPP prone to ARVC.
