Characterization and expression analysis of the hair keratin associated protein KAP26.1
21 Jul 2008
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Human hair follicle keratin-associated proteins (KAPs) comprise a large multigene family of proteins thought to be responsible for the bundling of keratin intermediate filaments. Recently, four new KAP family members KAP24.1, KAP25.1, KAP26.1 and KAP27.1 were identified from the genome, but the expression of only one, KAP24.1, was investigated and shown in hair follicles. OBJECTIVES: In the current...
