AHNAK


Neuroblast differentiation-associated protein AHNAK, also known as desmoyokin, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the AHNAK gene. AHNAK was originally identified in 1989 and named desmoyokin due to its localization pattern in the desmosomal plaque. AHNAK has been shown to be essential for pseudopod protrusion and cell migration.
