| Sequence status | Complete. |
| Protein existence | Evidence at transcript level |
General annotation (Comments)
| 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 structure | Interacts with hair keratins. |
| Tissue specificity | Restricted to hair root, not detected in any other tissues. Ref.1 |
| Sequence similarities | Belongs to the KRTAP type 5 family. |
