http://purl.uniprot.org/citations/16242304http://www.w3.org/2000/01/rdf-schema#comment"Transmembrane proteins of the cadherin superfamily, the desmogleins and desmocollins, mediate intercellular adhesion in desmosomes. Autoantibodies to desmoglein 1 (dsg1) are a hallmark of pemphigus foliaceus (PF), a disease characterized by skin blistering resulting from keratinocyte cell detachment. The etiology and pathogenesis of this disease remain poorly understood; however, genetic susceptibility is clearly involved. The aim of this study was to verify if genetic variants of dsg1 influence susceptibility/resistance to endemic PF (fogo selvagem). Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were analyzed: 809 (C,T), a synonymous variation, and 1660 (A,C), a tyrosine<-->serine variation in the fifth extracellular domain. Allelic, haplotypic and genotypic frequencies did not differ significantly between the patient (n=134) and the control (n=227) population samples. Moreover, there is no evidence of interaction between the DSG1 and the HLA-DRB1 and IL6 genes, whose alleles had been found associated with differential susceptibility to PF. The results of this study agree with the described and predicted B- and T-cell epitopes of the dsg1 molecule, which seemingly are not affected by the allelic variation. We conclude that genetic diversity of the autoantigen dsg1 is not a major factor for PF pathogenesis in the Brazilian population."xsd:string
