This gene is located in the tylosis oesophageal cancer locus on chromosome 17q25, and its deletion is associated with both familial and sporadic forms of oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma. Patients suffering from the autoimmune mucocutaneous disorder, paraneoplastic pemphigus, develop antibodies against the encoded protein. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]. * **UniProt Summary**: Component of the cornified envelope of keratinocytes. May link the cornified envelope to desmosomes and intermediate filaments. |Plectin| |intermediate filament binding| |desmosome| |intermediate filament cytoskeleton| |intermediate filament cytoskeleton organization| |intermediate filament-based process| |peptide cross-linking| |cornified envelope| |protein binding, bridging| |cornification| |intermediate filament| |structural molecule activity| |keratinization| |keratinocyte differentiation| |cadherin binding| |epidermal cell differentiation| |skin development| |epidermis development| |wound healing| |response to wounding| |epithelial cell differentiation| |programmed cell death| |cell death| |cytoskeleton organization| |epithelium development| |tissue development| |membrane| \\ === CRISPR Data === ^Screen^Score^ |[[:results:exp209|Deguelin 0.15μM R05 exp209]]|-1.72| |[[:results:exp144|PFI-3 10μM R03 exp144]]|1.79| No correlation found to any other genes in chemogenomics.
