target relevance
Protein names Keratin, type I cytoskeletal 18 (Cell proliferation-inducing gene 46 protein) (Cytokeratin-18) (CK-18) (Keratin-18) (K18)
Protein family Intermediate filament family
Mass 48058Da
Function Involved in the uptake of thrombin-antithrombin complexes by hepatic cells (By similarity). When phosphorylated, plays a role in filament reorganization. Involved in the delivery of mutated CFTR to the plasma membrane. Together with KRT8, is involved in interleukin-6 (IL-6)-mediated barrier protection.
Subellular location Nucleus matrix . Cytoplasm, perinuclear region. Nucleus, nucleolus . Cytoplasm .
Tissues Expressed in colon, placenta, liver and very weakly in exocervix. Increased expression observed in lymph nodes of breast carcinoma.
Structure Heterotetramer of two type I and two type II keratins. KRT18 associates with KRT8 (PubMed:10852826, PubMed:24940650). Interacts with PLEC isoform 1C, when in a heterodimer with KRT8 (PubMed:24940650). Interacts with the thrombin-antithrombin complex (By similarity). Interacts with PNN and mutated CFTR. Interacts with YWHAE, YWHAH and YWHAZ only when phosphorylated. Interacts with DNAJB6, TCHP and TRADD. Interacts with FAM83H (PubMed:23902688). Interacts with EPPK1 (By similarity). Interacts with PKP1 and PKP2 (PubMed:10852826).; (Microbial infection) Interacts with hepatitis C virus/HCV core protein.
Post-translational modification PTM: Phosphorylation at Ser-34 increases during mitosis. Hyperphosphorylated at Ser-53 in diseased cirrhosis liver. Phosphorylation increases by IL-6.; PTM: Proteolytically cleaved by caspases during epithelial cell apoptosis. Cleavage occurs at Asp-238 by either caspase-3, caspase-6 or caspase-7.; PTM: O-GlcNAcylation increases solubility, and decreases stability by inducing proteasomal degradation.

Involvement in disease Cirrhosis (CIRRH) [MIM:215600]: A liver disease characterized by severe panlobular liver-cell swelling with Mallory body formation, prominent pericellular fibrosis, and marked deposits of copper. Clinical features include abdomen swelling, jaundice and pulmonary hypertension. Note=The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
