Summary
Filaggrin is a structural protein that is crucial for in the development and maintenance of the skin barrier. This gene encodes a retroviral-like protease involved in profilaggrin-to-filaggrin processing. Expression is found primarily in the epidermis and inner root sheath of hair follicles.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
