Summary | This gene encodes a member of the high sulfur-type keratin-associated protein (KAP) family. The KAP proteins form a matrix of keratin intermediate filaments which contribute to the structure of hair fibers. This gene is located in a cluster of similar genes on 21q22.3. Alternatively-spliced transcript variants have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2015]. |
