Also known as KAP19.7
Summary
KRTAP19-7 (keratin associated protein 19-7, HGNC:18942) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 21q22.11, encoding Keratin-associated protein 19-7 (Q3SYF9). 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-link….
Predicted to be located in cytosol.

Keratin-associated protein 19-7 — Q3SYF9 (reviewed: Q3SYF9)
All UniProt accessions (1): Q3SYF9
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. 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.
Subunit / interactions. Interacts with hair keratins.
Similarity. Belongs to the KRTAP type 19 family.
