About Krt16

Summary

Predicted to be a structural constituent of Cytoskeleton. Predicted to be involved in several processes, including hair cycle; keratinocyte migration; and skin development. Predicted to act upstream of or within intermediate filament Cytoskeleton organization. Predicted to be located in intermediate filament. Biomarker of esophagus squamous cell carcinoma. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in ectodermal dysplasia; focal nonepidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma 1; and pachyonychia congenita. Orthologous to human KRT16 (keratin 16).
