The type II cytokeratin s consist of basic or neutral proteins which are arranged in pairs of heterotypic i.e., different types of keratin chains coexpressed during cellular differentiation differentiation of Epithelium Simple epithelium simple and Epithelium Stratified epithelium stratified epithelial tissues. The type II cytokeratin genes are clustered in a region of chromosome 12q12 q13. This type II cytokeratin is specifically expressed in the stratum germinativum basal layer of the epidermis skin epidermis with family member keratin 14 KRT14 . Clinical significance Mutations in these genes have been associated with a complex of diseases termed epidermolysis bullosa simplex . ref name pmid12655565 Cite journal author Schuilenga Hut PH, Vlies P, Jonkman MF, Waanders E, Buys CH, Scheffer H title Mutation analysis of the entire keratin 5 and 14 genes in patients with epidermolysis bullosa simplex and identification of novel mutations journal Hum. ... more details
