Target Information
Alternative Names
47 kDa cytokeratin; CK-13; CK13; Cytokeratin 13; Cytokeratin-13; K13; K1C13_HUMAN; Ka13; Keratin; Keratin 13; keratin type I cytoskeletal 13; Keratin-13; Krt-1.13; Krt1-13; KRT13; MGC161462; MGC3781; type I cytoskeletal 13; Type I keratin Ka13; WSN2
Protein Function
Type 1 keratin (Probable). Maintains postnatal tongue mucosal cell homeostasis and tissue organization in response to mechanical stress, potentially via regulation of the G1/S phase cyclins CCNE1 and CCNE2 (By similarity).
Tissue Specificity
Expressed in some epidermal sweat gland ducts (at protein level) and in exocervix, esophagus and placenta.
Involvement in Disease
Defects in KRT13 are a cause of white sponge nevus of cannon (WSN). WSN is a rare autosomal dominant disorder which predominantly affects non-cornified stratified squamous epithelia. Clinically, it is characterized by the presence of soft, white, and spongy plaques in the oral mucosa. The characteristic histopathologic features are epithelial thickening, parakeratosis, and vacuolization of the suprabasal layer of oral epithelial keratinocytes. Less frequently the mucous membranes of the nose, esophagus, genitalia and rectum are involved.
