The Two Functional Keratin 6 Genes of Mouse Are Differentially Regulated and Evolved Independently from Their Human Orthologs
1 Oct 1998
Abstract excerpt
The type II keratin 6 (K6) features a complex expression pattern, with a constitutive component in a subset of stratified epithelia and an inducible component following injury and other types of acute challenges. Multiple genes encoding highly related K6 isoforms have been described for human and bovine, a unique feature among mammalian keratin genes. Here we report on the cloning and characterization of two...
