Krt71 - keratin 71 Gene

Also Known as Ca; Cu; Cal4; mK6irs; Krt2-6g; mK6irs1

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 56735

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]
