Supplementary information

KRT79 also known as Keratin 79 is a type II cytokeratin with a molecular mass of approximately 53 kDa. This keratin is mainly expressed in the epithelial cells particularly in the epidermis and hair follicles. It plays an important role in the structural integrity and mechanical maintenance of these tissues by forming intermediate filaments. As a component of the cytoskeleton KRT79 helps cells withstand mechanical stress and provides resilience to the outer layer of skin.
Biological function summary

Keratin 79 contributes to the formation and maintenance of the cellular cytoskeletal framework. It is not found as an isolated protein but rather as part of a complex filamentous network in keratinocytes where it interacts with other keratins like KRT5 and KRT14. This network not only confers mechanical support to the cells but also participates in cell signaling processes that regulate cell growth and differentiation within the epidermis. Essential for maintaining the homeostasis of the skin Keratin 79 ensures the proper functioning and renewal of epithelial tissues.

Pathways

The cellular roles of Keratin 79 are involved in the keratinization pathway and the epidermal development pathway. These biological pathways are important for skin barrier function and involve other keratins such as KRT6 and KRT16. Through these pathways KRT79 appears essential for promoting the resilience and flexibility of the epidermis during physical and environmental stress as well as maintaining protective features against external insults.

Defects or dysregulation in Keratin 79 expression can contribute to disorders like alopecia and epidermolysis bullosa simplex. These conditions often involve abnormal keratinization or compromised skin integrity. KRT79's interaction with proteins like filaggrin and involucrins may exacerbate these disorders when their expression or function becomes irregular. This connection highlights the significance of Keratin 79 in skin and hair follicle health suggesting potential targets for therapeutic intervention in related conditions.
