High impact information on Cnfn

  • Human cornifelin contains 112 amino acids and is expressed in the uterus, cervix, and skin [1].
  • Using these mice, we have shown that cornifelin is directly or indirectly cross-linked to at least two other cornified envelope proteins, loricrin and involucrin, in vivo [1].
 

Analytical, diagnostic and therapeutic context of Cnfn

  • In situ hybridization analysis demonstrated the presence of human cornifelin in the granular cell layer of the epidermis [1].
