| Tissue Specificity | Expressed in large amounts in epithelial tissues (lung, liver and kidney). |
| Post Translational Modifications | Tyrosine-phosphorylated. Palmitoylated. The membrane anchorage region possesses a cluster of five cysteines within which fatty acid(s) may become thioester-linked. It is subject to phorbol ester-stimulated phosphorylation and is hypersensitive to proteolysis, which releases the enzyme in a soluble form. |
| Function | Catalyzes the cross-linking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins. Responsible for cross-linking epidermal proteins during formation of the stratum corneum. Involved in cell proliferation. |
