Complete Structure of an Epithelial Keratin Dimer: Implications for Intermediate Filament Assembly
Keratins are cytoskeletal proteins that hierarchically arrange into filaments, starting with the dimer sub-unit. They are integral to the structural support of cells, in skin, hair and nails. In skin, keratin is thought to play a critical role in conferring the barrier properties and elasticity of s...
