Gene symbol KRTAP4-12
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
KAP4.12KRTAP4.12
Chromosome 17
Chromosome location 17q21.2
Summary This protein is a member of the keratin-associated protein (KAP) family. The KAP proteins form a matrix of keratin intermediate filaments which contribute to the structure of hair fibers. KAP family members appear to have unique, family-specific amino- an

Protein name Keratin-associated protein 4-12 (Keratin-associated protein 4.12) (Ultrahigh sulfur keratin-associated protein 4.12)
Protein 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 e
