Abstract excerpt
In the course of studies on local keratin phenotypes in the epidermis of the adult mouse, we have identified a new 65 kD and 48 kD keratin pair. In mouse skin, this keratin pair is only expressed in suprabasal cells of adult mouse tail scale epidermis which is characterized by the complete absence of a granular layer and the formation of a remarkably compact stratum corneum. A second site in which the 65 kD and...
