Post Translational Modifications | Deiminated by PADI1, PADI2 or PADI3 in vitro. The deiminated form is degraded by calpain-1/CAPN1 more quickly and into shorter peptides than the intact protein. May be processed by calpain-1/CAPN1 in the uppermost epidermal layers. |
Function | Essential for normal cell-cell adhesion in the cornified cell layers. Important for proper integrity and mechanical strength of the stratum corneum of the epidermis. |
