Protein function (UniProt)

Protein-glutamine gamma-glutamyltransferase K

Catalyzes the cross-linking of proteins and the conjugation of polyamines to proteins (PubMed:7629111, PubMed:8824274, PubMed:26220141, PubMed:20663883). Responsible for cross-linking epidermal proteins during formation of the stratum corneum (PubMed:26220141). Involved in cell proliferation (PubMed:26220141)
