About Krt1

Summary

Predicted to enable carbohydrate binding activity and protein heterodimerization activity. Predicted to be a structural constituent of skin epidermis. Acts upstream of or within establishment of skin barrier and negative regulation of inflammatory response. Located in keratin filament. Is expressed in autopod; nose; skin; and tongue. Used to study epidermolytic hyperkeratosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in epidermolytic hyperkeratosis; epidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma; and nonepidermolytic palmoplantar keratoderma. Orthologous to human KRT1 (keratin 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
