Keratin 2A

Keratin 2A also known as keratin 2E or keratin 2 is a is_associated_with::protein that in humans is encoded by the KRT2A is_associated_with::gene.

Keratin 2A is a is_associated_with::type II cytokeratin. It is found largely in the upper spinous layer of epidermal is_associated_with::keratinocytes and mutations in the gene encoding this protein have been associated with is_associated_with::ichthyosis bullosa of Siemens.
