KRTAP13-2

Gene
KRTAP13-2
Protein
Keratin-associated protein 13-2
Organism
Homo sapiens
Length
175 amino acids
Function
In the hair cortex, hair keratin intermediate filaments are embedded in an interfilamentous matrix, consisting of hair keratin-associated proteins (KRTAP), which are essential for the formation of a rigid and resistant hair shaft through their extensive disulfide bond cross-linking with abundant cysteine residues of hair keratins. The matrix proteins include the high-sulfur and high-glycine-tyrosine keratins (By similarity).
Similarity
Belongs to the PMG family.
