Keratins are heteropolymeric structural proteins which form the intermediate filament. These filaments, along with actin microfilaments and microtubules, compose the cytoskeleton of epithelial cells. The type I keratin genes are clustered in a region of chromosome 17q12-q21. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2009]. * **UniProt Summary**: Essential for the proper assembly of types I and II keratin protein complexes and the formation of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (irs). {ECO:0000250|UniProtKB:A6BLY7}. |Filament| |cornification| |intermediate filament| |structural molecule activity| |keratinization| |keratinocyte differentiation| |epidermal cell differentiation| |skin development| |epidermis development| |epithelial cell differentiation| |molecular function| |programmed cell death| |cell death| |epithelium development| |tissue development| \\ === CRISPR Data === No hits were found.
