Characterization of Periphilin, a Widespread, Highly Insoluble Nuclear Protein and Potential Constituent of the Keratinocyte Cornified Envelope
1 Sept 2003
Abstract excerpt
While keratinocytes go through the terminal differentiation and move toward the outer layers of epidermis, multiple proteins become sequentially incorporated into the cornified cell envelope. We have identified through yeast two-hybrid screening a novel protein, periphilin, interacting with periplakin, which is known as a precursor of the cornified cell envelope. Periphilin gene at chromosome 12q12 gives rise to...
