Gene information for KRT28 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID162605
Official gene symbolKRT28
Full namekeratin 28
Aliases,KRT25D,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the type I (acidic) keratin family, which belongs to the superfamily of intermediate filament (IF) proteins. Keratins are heteropolymeric structural proteins which form the intermediate filament. These filaments, along with actin microfilaments and microtubules, compose the cytoskeleton of epithelial cells. The type I keratin genes are clustered in a region of chromosome 17q12-q21. [provided by RefSeq]
