Krt76 Gene Summary [Rat]

Predicted to be a structural constituent of skin epidermis. Predicted to be involved in intermediate filament organization and keratinization. Predicted to act upstream of or within epidermis development; pigmentation; and sebaceous gland development. Predicted to be located in intermediate filament. Predicted to be active in keratin filament. Orthologous to human KRT76 (keratin 76). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in rat Krt76 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
