Background
| Function | FUNCTION: Plays a central role in hair formation. Essential component of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:22592156}. |
| Pathway | |
| Protein Families | Intermediate filament family |
| Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in hair follicles from scalp. Specifically expressed in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle. Present in the all 3 IRS layers: the cuticle, the Henle and the Huxley layers. Also detected in the pseudopods of specialized Huxley cells, termed Fluegelzellen, along the area of differentiated Henle cells (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11982755, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12648212, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16874310, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22592156}. |
