Target Details for KRTAP8-1

Target: KRTAP8-1 (Keratin Associated Protein 8-1 (KRTAP8-1))

Alternative Name: KRTAP8-1

Background:

Background Information: KRTAP8-1 belongs to the KRTAP type 8 family. 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 extensive disulfide bond cross-linking with abundant cysteine residues of hair keratins. The matrix proteins include the high-sulfur and high-glycine-tyrosine keratins.
