KRT25
geneOn this page
Summary
KRT25 (keratin 25, HGNC:30839) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 17q21.2, encoding Keratin, type I cytoskeletal 25 (Q7Z3Z0). Essential for the proper assembly of type I and type II keratin protein complexes and formation of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (irs).
This gene encodes a member of the type I (acidic) keratin family, which belongs to the superfamily of intermediate filament (IF) proteins. Keratins are heteropolymeric structural proteins which form the intermediate filament. These filaments, along with actin microfilaments and microtubules, compose the cytoskeleton of epithelial cells. The type I keratin genes are clustered in a region of chromosome 17q12-q21.

- KRT25 is involved in human hair abnormality, and is consistent with the curled, fragile hair found in mice with Krt25 mutations. (PMID:26160856)
- Study reports a Chinese autosomal dominant woolly hair/hypotrichosis pedigree that results from a heterozygous nonsynonymous variant in KRT25 and conclude that mutation in KRT25 affects the stability of the cytoskeleton and hypothesize that this is how it affects hair in woolly hair syndromes.

Keratin, type I cytoskeletal 25 — Q7Z3Z0 (reviewed: Q7Z3Z0)
Alternative names: Cytokeratin-25, Keratin-25, Keratin-25A, Type I inner root sheath-specific keratin-K25irs1
All UniProt accessions (1): Q7Z3Z0
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Essential for the proper assembly of type I and type II keratin protein complexes and formation of keratin intermediate filaments in the inner root sheath (irs). Plays a role in the cytoskeleton organization.
Subunit / interactions. Heterodimer of a type I and a type II keratin. Heterodimer with type II keratin KRT5 leading to the formation of keratin intermediate filament (KIF) network. Interacts with KRT6A to form filaments.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasm.
Tissue specificity. Strongly expressed in skin and scalp, and weak expression observed in thymus and tongue. In the hair follicle, expressed in Henle layer, Huxley layer and in the inner root sheath cuticle of the hair follicle. Expression extends from the bulb region up to the point of differentiation into the three layers. Also present in the medulla of beard hair (at protein level).
Disease relevance. Woolly hair autosomal recessive 3 (ARWH3) [MIM:616760] A hair shaft disorder characterized by fine and tightly curled hair. Compared to normal curly hair that is observed in some populations, woolly hair grows slowly and stops growing after a few inches. Under light microscopy, woolly hair shows some structural anomalies, including trichorrhexis nodosa and tapered ends. Some individuals may present with hypotrichosis. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Miscellaneous. There are two types of cytoskeletal and microfibrillar keratin: I (acidic; 40-55 kDa) and II (neutral to basic; 56-70 kDa).
Similarity. Belongs to the intermediate filament family.
