DefinitionThis section has been translated automatically.
The LCE1A gene (LCE1A stands for "Late Cornified Envelope 1A") is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1q21.3. The associated signaling pathways include keratinization and development of the nervous system
General informationThis section has been translated automatically.
LCE1A belongs to the late cornified envelope protein (LCE) gene cluster located within the epidermal differentiation complex (EDC) on chromosome 1. The LCE cluster contains several conserved genes that encode proteins of the stratum corneum. These genes are expressed relatively late (late cornified envelope proteins) during fetal formation of the cornified envelope of the skin
Diseases associated with LCE1A include cataract 31.
