Transglutaminase Function in Epidermis [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2005 Surface epithelial cells, such as the epidermal keratinocyte, undergo a process of terminal cell differentiation that results in the construction of a multilayered epithelium. This epithelium functions to protect the organism from the environment. Transglutaminases, enzymes that catalyze the formation of isopeptide protein-protein cross-links, are key ...
