About Krt71

Summary

Predicted to be a structural constituent of Cytoskeleton. Involved in hair follicle morphogenesis. Located in keratin filament. Is expressed in eyelid epithelium; hair inner root sheath; lung; and vibrissa. Used to study hypotrichosis 13. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in hypotrichosis 13. Orthologous to human KRT71 (keratin 71). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
