KRT16P1
Description
The KRT16P1 (keratin 16 pseudogene 1) is a pseudo gene located on chromosome 17.
KRT16P1 is a gene that encodes a protein that is similar to keratin proteins. It is expressed in epithelial tissues, which are tissues that line the surfaces of the body. The function of KRT16P1 is not yet known, but it is thought to be involved in maintaining the structural integrity of epithelial tissues.
The exact function of KRT16P1 is currently unknown. However, its sequence similarity to keratin proteins and its expression in epithelial tissues suggest that it may play a role in maintaining the structural integrity of these tissues. Further research is needed to elucidate its specific role.
KRT16P1 is also known as KRT14P, KRT16P.
