function:In the hair cortex, hair keratin intermediate filaments are embedded in an interfilamentous matrix, consisting of hair keratin-associated protein (KRTAP), which are essential for the formation of a rigid and resistant hair shaft through their extensive disulfide bond cross-linking with abundant cysteine residues of hair keratins. The matrix proteins include the high-sulfur and high-glycine-tyrosine keratins.,similarity:Belongs to the KRTAP type 5 family.,subunit:Interacts with hair keratins.,tissue specificity:Expressed in hair root but not in skin. Expressed also in lung, pancreas, ovary, testis.,
