Tissue Specificity | Isoform 2, isoform 3 and isoform 4 are expressed in several cell lines including keratinocytes and bladder and epidermoid carcinoma (at protein level). Isoform 2, isoform 3 and isoform 4 are expressed in hair follicle and interfollicular epidermis (at protein level). |
Function | Component of the cornified envelope of keratinocytes. May be involved in the interplay between adherens junctions and desmosomes. The function in the nucleus is not known. |
