Abstract:
Affinity chromatography using oligo DNA from a cis-active region (-453 / -389) of the human DSC2 promoter was used to isolate a protein from human CaCo-2 epithelial cells expressing DSC2. The protein was SDS-PAGE purified, trypsinized and analyzed by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Peptide mass fingerprinting identified the protein as nucleolin, a ubiquitously expressed protein involved in gene regulationKeywords: NUCLEOLIN; DESMOCOLLIN 2 PROMOTER; Glycoproteins; desmosomal cadherins desmocollins (DSC); desmogleins (DSG); plakoglobin (PG); plakophilin (PKP); desmoplakin (DP)
