PLET1
Function
Modulates leading keratinocyte migration and cellular adhesion to matrix proteins during a wound-healing response and promotes wound repair. May play a role during trichilemmal differentiation of the hair follicle (By similarity).
Post-translational modifications
N-glycosylated.
GPI-anchored.
Cellular localization
- Apical cell membrane
- Lipid-anchor
- GPI-anchor
- Localized at the apical membrane of the most differentiated keratinocytes of the outer root sheath (ORS), clustered mainly in planar regions of the plasma membrane at the base of microvilli.
