Multiple roles for keratin intermediate filaments in the regulation of epithelial barrier function and apico-basal polarity

As multicellular organisms evolved a family of cytoskeletal proteins, the keratins (types I and II) expressed in epithelial cells diversified in more than 20 genes in vertebrates. There is no question that keratin filaments confer mechanical stiffness to cells. However, such a number of genes can ha...
