Summary

KRTAP5-10 (keratin associated protein 5-10, HGNC:23605) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q13.4, encoding Keratin-associated protein 5-10 (Q6L8G5). In the hair cortex, hair keratin intermediate filaments are embedded in an interfilamentous matrix, consisting of hair keratin-associated protein (KRTAP), which are essential for the formation of a rigid and resistant hair shaft through their extensive disulfide bond cross-linki….

Predicted to be located in cytosol.

All UniProt accessions (1): Q6L8G5

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 protein (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.

Tissue specificity. Expressed in hair root but not in skin. Expressed also in brain and skeletal muscle.

Similarity. Belongs to the KRTAP type 5 family.
