Tissue specificity:In skin, only expressed in the suprabasal cells of tail scale epidermis. Suprabasally expressed in stratified squamous epithelia and also in the posterior unit of the complex filiform papillae of tongue. Expressed in rare anatomical sites in which an orthokeratinized stratum corneum would be too soft and a hard keratinized structure would be too rigid to meet the functional requirement of the respective epithelia. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1385239}.
Induction:mRNA synthesis is suppressed during retinoic acid-mediated orthokeratotic conversion of tail scale epidermis. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1385239}.
Developmental stage:
Protein families:Intermediate filament family
