DESCRIPTION

Also known as KRA41_HUMAN, KRTAP4-1, KAP4.10, KRTAP4-10, KRTAP4.1, KRTAP4.10. 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. Interacts with hair keratins.
