Also known as: ECTD12; C1orf172
Summary: Predicted to be involved in several processes, including positive regulation of epidermal cell differentiation; regulation of epidermal cell division; and skin epidermis development. Predicted to act upstream of or within keratinocyte development and negative regulation of keratinocyte proliferation. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm. Predicted to be active in cell junction. Implicated in ectodermal dysplasia 12. [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Dec 2024]

What's a GeneRIF?

KDF1 Novel Variant Causes Unique Dental and Oral Epithelial Defects.
Title: KDF1 Novel Variant Causes Unique Dental and Oral Epithelial Defects.
We describe a family with a novel, autosomal dominant form of ectodermal dysplasia that we suggest is the mild human equivalent of the shd mutant phenotype in mouse based on the finding of a novel KDF1 variant by positional mapping and exome sequencing.
Title: KDF1, encoding keratinocyte differentiation factor 1, is mutated in a multigenerational family with ectodermal dysplasia.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
