Tissue specificity:Highly expressed in hair follicles from scalp. Specifically expressed in the inner root sheath (IRS) of the hair follicle. Present in the all 3 IRS layers: the cuticle, the Henle and the Huxley layers. Also detected in the pseudopods of specialized Huxley cells, termed Fluegelzellen, along the area of differentiated Henle cells (at protein level). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:11982755, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12648212, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16874310, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22592156}.
Induction:
Developmental stage:In all 3 IRS layers, expression begins simultaneously in adjacent cells of the lowermost bulb above the germinative cell pool and terminated higher up in the follicle with the asynchronous terminal differentiation of each cell layer (at protein level).
Protein families:Intermediate filament family
