Overview

Keratin 17 pseudogene 7 (KRT17P7) is a genomic locus formally classified as a pseudogene at the keratin 17 locus[4]. Unlike the canonical keratin 17 gene (KRT17), which encodes the type I intermediate filament protein *keratin 17* involved in skin, nail, and hair structure[1][6], KRT17P7 is not transcribed into a functional protein. No evidence supports a biological, disease, or pharmacological role for KRT17P7. Key distinction: - *KRT17 (Keratin 17)* is a protein-coding gene implicated in diseases such as pachyonychia congenita and steatocystoma multiplex, and functions in structural support, wound healing, and epithelial development[1][3][5][6]. - *KRT17P7* is a **pseudogene**, meaning it does **not** produce functional protein and should **not be considered a therapeutic or research target**[4]. If you seek structured information about keratin 17 as a biological target, please refer specifically to **KRT17** (keratin 17), not **KRT17P7**.
