The human type I keratin gene family: characterization of new hair follicle specific members and evaluation of the chromosome 17q21. 2 gene domain
MA Rogers, H Winter, L Langbein, R Bleiler… - Differentiation, 2004 - Elsevier
In general concurrence with recent studies, bioinformatic analysis of the chromosome
17q21. 2 DNA sequence found in the EBI/Genebank database shows the presence of 27
type I keratin genes and five keratin pseudogenes present on 8 contiguous Bacterial
Artificial Chromosome (BAC) sequences. This constitutes the 970 kb type I keratin gene
domain. Inserted into this domain is a 350 kb region harboring 32 previously characterized
keratin-associated protein genes. Of the 27 keratin genes found in this region, six have not …
