    protein aiding cell adhesion in skin and tissues

    Desmoglein is a type of protein found in the skin and other tissues that helps cells stick together, forming strong connections called desmosomes. These proteins are crucial for maintaining the structural integrity of tissues, and their dysfunction can lead to skin disorders and diseases such as pemphigus, where the skin becomes fragile and blisters easily.
