Official Full Name: trichohyalin like 1<br />Also known as: THHL1; S100A17<br />The gene belongs to the S100 fusion protein (SFTP) gene family and is located in the SFTP gene cluster on chromosome 1q21. Several members of this family have been implicated in the development of complex skin disorders. This gene is evolutionarily conserved; its expression appears to be hair-specific and spatially restricted to the distal inner root sheath of the hair follicle. Therefore, it may play an important role in hair morphogenesis.
