Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 1041
Gene name Corneodesmosin
Gene symbol CDSN
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
HTSSHTSS1HYPT2PSSPSS1
Chromosome 6
Chromosome location 6p21.33
Summary This gene encodes a protein found in corneodesmosomes, which localize to human epidermis and other cornified squamous epithelia. The encoded protein undergoes a series of cleavages during corneocyte maturation. This gene is highly polymorphic in human pop
