Dystrophin-associated protein complex
A MULTIPROTEIN COMPLEX THAT FORMS A STRONG MECHANICAL LINK BETWEEN THE CYTOSKELETON AND EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX; TYPICAL OF, BUT NOT CONFINED TO, MUSCLE CELLS. THE COMPLEX IS COMPOSED OF TRANSMEMBRANE, CYTOPLASMIC, AND EXTRACELLULAR PROTEINS, INCLUDING
Dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex; DAGC
The dystrophin-associated protein complex, also known as the dystrophin-associated glycoprotein complex is a multiprotein complex that includes dystrophin and the dystrophin-associated proteins. It is one of the two protein complexes that make up the costamere in striated muscle cells.
