Comparison of molecularly cloned bullous pemphigoid antigen to desmoplakin I confirms that they define a new family of cell adhesion junction plaque proteins

1 Jul 1991

Abstract excerpt

Bullous pemphigoid is a subepidermal blistering disease in which patients have autoantibodies against the plaque of the hemidesmosome. Starting with a previously isolated 2-kilobase (kb) cDNA for bullous pemphigoid antigen (BPA), we used primer extension of keratinocyte mRNA to isolate overlapping cDNAs with a combined open reading frame of 6.3 kb, encoding most (243 kDa) of the BPA, but lacking the far amino...
