Summary
DST (dystonin, HGNC:1090) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 6p12.1, encoding Dystonin (Q03001). Cytoskeletal linker protein.
This gene encodes a member of the plakin protein family of adhesion junction plaque proteins. Multiple alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been found for this gene, but the full-length nature of some variants has not been defined. It has been reported that some isoforms are expressed in neural and muscle tissue, anchoring neural intermediate filaments to the actin cytoskeleton, and some isoforms are expressed in epithelial tissue, anchoring keratin-containing intermediate filaments to hemidesmosomes. Consistent with the expression, mice defective for this gene show skin blistering and neurodegeneration.

Function. Cytoskeletal linker protein. Acts as an integrator of intermediate filaments, actin and microtubule cytoskeleton networks. Required for anchoring either intermediate filaments to the actin cytoskeleton in neural and muscle cells or keratin-containing intermediate filaments to hemidesmosomes in epithelial cells. The proteins may self-aggregate to form filaments or a two-dimensional mesh. Regulates the organization and stability of the microtubule network of sensory neurons to allow axonal transport. Mediates docking of the dynein/dynactin motor complex to vesicle cargos for retrograde axonal transport through its interaction with TMEM108 and DCTN1. Plays a structural role in the assembly of hemidesmosomes of epithelial cells; anchors keratin-containing intermediate filaments to the inner plaque of hemidesmosomes. Required for the regulation of keratinocyte polarity and motility; mediates integrin ITGB4 regulation of RAC1 activity. Required for bundling actin filaments around the nucleus. Regulates the organization and stability of the microtubule network of sensory neurons to allow axonal transport.
Subunit / interactions. Homodimer. Isoform 1 interacts (via N-terminus) with PLEC (via N-terminus). Interacts with the neuronal intermediate filament protein, PRPH. Interacts with DES. Interacts with SYNE3. Isoform 1 and isoform 6 can homodimerize (via N-terminus). Isoform 1 interacts (via N-terminus) with ACTN2. Isoform 1 interacts (via N-terminus) with PLEC (via N-terminus). Isoform 3 interacts (via N-terminus) with COL17A1 (via cytoplasmic region). Isoform 3 interacts (via N-terminus) with ITGB4 isoform beta-4a (via cytoplasmic region). Isoform 3 interacts (via N-terminus) with ERBIN (via C-terminus). Isoform 3 associates (via C-terminal) with KRT5-KRT14 (via rod region) intermediate filaments of keratins. Interacts with MAPRE1; probably required for targeting to the growing microtubule plus ends. Interacts with TMIGD2. Isoform 9 interacts with TMEM108.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton. Stress fiber. Cell projection. Axon Cytoplasm. Myofibril. Sarcomere. Z line. H zone Cytoplasm. Cytoskeleton Cytoplasm. Cell junction. Hemidesmosome Nucleus. Nucleus envelope. Membrane. Endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Stress fiber Cytoplasm. Axon. Membrane Cytoplasm. Cell cortex. Cell membrane.
Tissue specificity. Isoform 1 is expressed in myoblasts (at protein level). Isoform 3 is expressed in the skin. Isoform 6 is expressed in the brain. Highly expressed in skeletal muscle and cultured keratinocytes.
Disease relevance. Neuropathy, hereditary sensory and autonomic, 6 (HSAN6) [MIM:614653] A form of hereditary sensory and autonomic neuropathy, a genetically and clinically heterogeneous group of disorders characterized by degeneration of dorsal root and autonomic ganglion cells, and by sensory and/or autonomic abnormalities. HSAN6 is a severe autosomal recessive disorder characterized by neonatal hypotonia, respiratory and feeding difficulties, lack of psychomotor development, and autonomic abnormalities including labile cardiovascular function, lack of corneal reflexes leading to corneal scarring, areflexia, and absent axonal flare response after intradermal histamine injection. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. Epidermolysis bullosa simplex 3, localized or generalized intermediate, with BP230 deficiency (EBS3) [MIM:615425] A form of epidermolysis bullosa, a genodermatosis characterized by recurrent blistering, fragility of the skin and mucosal epithelia, and erosions caused by minor mechanical trauma. EBS3 is an autosomal recessive disorder characterized by skin blistering mainly occurring on the feet and ankles. Ultrastructural analysis of skin biopsy shows abnormal hemidesmosomes with poorly formed inner plaques. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Domain organisation. Its association with epidermal and simple keratins is dependent on the tertiary structure induced by heterodimerization of these intermediate filaments proteins and most likely involves recognition sites located in the rod domain of these keratins. The microtubule tip localization signal (MtLS) motif; mediates interaction with MAPRE1 and targeting to the growing microtubule plus ends.
Miscellaneous. Incomplete sequence. May be produced at very low levels due to a premature stop codon in the mRNA, leading to nonsense-mediated mRNA decay. Incomplete sequence. Transmembrane protein (helical transmembrane domain from amino acid 18 to 38). Incomplete sequence. Probably myristoylated on Gly-2. Probably S-palmitoylated on Cys-5 and Cys-7.

Enriched among interaction partners
Reactome pathways and GO biological processes over-represented among this gene’s 199 IntAct physical interaction partners (hypergeometric vs the genome-wide background, BH-FDR, gene-set size 15–500, ranked by fold). A functional readout of the neighbourhood — distinct from this gene’s own memberships above, and biased toward well-studied / hub proteins, so read it as themes rather than proof.
