HCA071A recognises human desmin. Desmin belongs to the class III of intermediate filaments, constituting part of the cytoskeleton, and is the characteristic intermediate filament of all three types of muscle cells (skeletal, cardiac and smooth muscle). Desmin is a 52-kDa protein encoded by nine exons of a gene located at 2q35. Desmin forms cytoskeletal network across the muscle fibre bordering at the plasma and nuclear membrane and is particularly localized to the subplasmalemmal region and the Z-band. It is useful for identification of rhabdomyosarcomas and leiomyomas.
