target relevance
Protein names Keratin, type I cytoskeletal 20 (Cytokeratin-20) (CK-20) (Keratin-20) (K20) (Protein IT)
Gene names KRT20,KRT20
Protein family Intermediate filament family
Mass 48487Da
Function FUNCTION: Plays a significant role in maintaining keratin filament organization in intestinal epithelia. When phosphorylated, plays a role in the secretion of mucin in the small intestine (By similarity). {ECO:0000250, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:12857878, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:16608857}.
Subellular location SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Cytoplasm {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:10973561, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:1696264}.
Tissues TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed predominantly in the intestinal epithelium. Expressed in luminal cells of colonic mucosa. Also expressed in the Merkel cells of keratinized oral mucosa; specifically at the tips of some rete ridges of the gingival mucosa, in the basal layer of the palatal mucosa and in the taste buds of lingual mucosa. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:10973561, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:1696264}.
Structure SUBUNIT: Heterotetramer of two type I and two type II keratins. Associates with KRT8.
Post-translational modification PTM: Hyperphosphorylation at Ser-13 occurs during the early stages of apoptosis but becomes less prominent during the later stages. Phosphorylation at Ser-13 also increases in response to stress brought on by cell injury (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.; PTM: Proteolytically cleaved by caspases during apoptosis. Cleavage occurs at Asp-228. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:16608857}.
