Other Information

**Key characteristics:** * Loricrin is a glycoprotein with a molecular weight of approximately 150 kDa. * It is a transmembrane protein that is expressed in a variety of cell types, including blood vessel endothelial cells, granulocyte monocyte progenitor cells, goblet cells, and neural cells. * Loricrin is a key component of the cornified envelope, which is a highly organized structure that protects the cell from its surroundings. * It is involved in the regulation of cell migration, proliferation, and differentiation. **Pathways and functions:** * Loricrin is involved in the formation of the cornified envelope. It is a key component of the adhesion complex that holds the lipid bilayer together. * It also plays a role in the regulation of cell migration by binding to specific receptors on the surface of endothelial cells. * Loricrin is involved in the development of the cerebral cortex and the formation of the neural tube. * It is also involved in the regulation of skin development and wound healing. **Clinical significance:** * Mutations in the Loricrin gene have been linked to several human diseases, including cornification disorders, skin cancer, and developmental disorders. * Loricrin is a potential therapeutic target for these diseases. * The development of drugs that target Loricrin could provide a new treatment for these disorders. **Other important points:** * Loricrin is a highly conserved protein, with similar proteins found in other vertebrates. * It is a very stable protein, with a half-life of over 100 hours in vitro. * Loricrin is a promising target for cancer immunotherapy due to its expression on the surface of cancer cells.
