Function |
May regulate the activity of kinases such as PKC and SRC via binding to integrin beta-1 (ITB1) and the receptor of activated protein kinase C (RACK1/GNB2L1). In complex with C1QBP is a high affinity receptor for kininogen-1/HMWK. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17956333, ECO:0000269|PubMed:21544310}.
|
Subcellular Location |
Cell membrane {ECO:0000269|PubMed:17956333}. Note=Located on plasma membrane of neuroblastoma NMB7 cells.
|
Tissue Specificity |
The source of this protein is neonatal foreskin. The 67-kDa type II keratins are expressed in terminally differentiating epidermis.
