كراتين

الكـِراتين أو القرتين ( Keratin ؛ /ˈkɛrətɪn/[1][2])، هي عائلة من الپروتينات الليفية، وهي صلبة وعديمة الذوبان موجودة لدى الزواحف والطيور والبرمائيات والثدييات.[3][4] وتدخل بشكل أساسي في تكوين الشعر والصوف والأظافر والمخالب والجلد ومينا الأسنان والحوافر والقرون، لا يضاهيها في الصلابة من بين المواد الحيوية سوى الكايتين Chitin.[5][6][7] ويأتي الكيراتين على نوعين: البدائي، في الصيَغ الأطرى الموجودة في كل الفقاريات، والأصلب، في الصيَغ المشتقة الموجودة فقط في سحليات الوجه (الزواحف والطيور).
تعريف
الكراتين هو پروتين متين عديم الذوبان يوجد في الطبقة الخارجية للجلد عند بني البشر وحيوانات أخرى عديدة. وتدعى هذه الطبقة الخارجية البشرة. تحتوي الطبقة السطحية من خلايا البشرة على القرَتين. ويجعل القرتين الموجود في هذه الخلايا الجلد متينًا ويكاد يكون مانعًا للماء بشكل تام. ويزداد عدد الخلايا المحتوية على القرتين في الأماكن التي يتعرض فيها الجلد لكثير من الاحتكاك والارتخاء ـ مثل الكفين والقدمين ـ مما يؤدي إلى تكون ما يسمى الجسأة. ويتم طرح الخلايا المحتوية على القرتين واستبدال أخرى جديدة بها باستمرار. وتحدث الحالة المعروفة باسم الهبرية، عندما تطرح فروة الرأس مثل هذه الخلايا.
أمثلة التواجد

Alpha-keratins (α-keratins) are found in all vertebrates. They form the hair (including wool), the outer layer of skin, horns, nails, claws and hooves of mammals, and the slime threads of hagfish.[4] The baleen plates of filter-feeding whales are also made of keratin. Keratin filaments are abundant in keratinocytes in the hornified layer of the epidermis; these are proteins which have undergone keratinization. They are also present in epithelial cells in general. For example, mouse thymic epithelial cells react with antibodies for keratin 5, keratin 8, and keratin 14. These antibodies are used as fluorescent markers to distinguish subsets of mouse thymic epithelial cells in genetic studies of the thymus.
The harder beta-keratins (β-keratins) are found only in the sauropsids, i.e., all living reptiles and birds. They are found in the nails, scales, and claws of reptiles, in some reptile shells (Testudines), and in the feathers, beaks, and claws of birds.[8] These keratins are formed primarily in beta sheets. However, beta sheets are also found in α-keratins.[9] Recent scholarship has shown that sauropsid β-keratins are fundamentally different from α-keratins at a genetic and structural level. The new term corneous beta protein (CBP) has been proposed to avoid confusion with α-keratins.[10]
Keratins (also described as cytokeratins) are polymers of type I and type II intermediate filaments that have been found only in chordates (vertebrates, amphioxi, urochordates).[مطلوب توضيح] Nematodes and many other non-chordate animals seem to have only type V intermediate filaments, fibers that structure the nucleus.
الجينات


The human genome encodes 54 functional keratin genes, located in two clusters on chromosomes 12 and 17. This suggests that they originated from a series of gene duplications on these chromosomes.[11]
The keratins include the following proteins of which KRT23, KRT24, KRT25, KRT26, KRT27, KRT28, KRT31, KRT32, KRT33A, KRT33B, KRT34, KRT35, KRT36, KRT37, KRT38, KRT39, KRT40, KRT71, KRT72, KRT73, KRT74, KRT75, KRT76, KRT77, KRT78, KRT79, KRT80, KRT81, KRT82, KRT83, KRT84, KRT85 and KRT86 have been used to describe keratins past 20.[12]

الوظيفة
Keratin filaments are abundant in keratinocytes in the cornified layer of the epidermis; these are cells which have undergone keratinization. In addition, keratin filaments are present in epithelial cells in general. For example, mouse thymic epithelial cells (TECs) are known to react with antibodies for keratin 5, keratin 8, and keratin 14. These antibodies are used as fluorescent markers to distinguish subsets of TECs in genetic studies of the thymus.
- the α-keratins in the hair (including wool), horns, nails, claws and hooves of mammals[التحقق مطلوب]
- the harder β-keratins found in nails and in the scales and claws of reptiles, their shells (chelonians, such as tortoise, turtle, terrapin), and in the feathers, beaks, claws of birds and quills of porcupines.[14] (These keratins are formed primarily in beta sheets. However, beta sheets are also found in α-keratins.)[15]
The baleen plates of filter-feeding whales are made of keratin.
Although it is now difficult to be certain, the scales, claws, some protective armour and the beaks of dinosaurs were probably composed of keratin.[16]
Keratins (also described as cytokeratins) are polymers of type I and type II intermediate filaments, which have only been found in the genomes of chordates (vertebrates, Amphioxus, urochordates). Nematodes and many other non-chordate animals seem to only have type V intermediate filaments, lamins, which have a long rod domain (vs. a short rod domain for the keratins).

البيولوجيا الجزيئية والكيمياء الحيوية
The usefulness of keratins depends on their supermolecular aggregation. These depend on the properties of the individual polypeptide strands, which depend in turn on their amino acid composition and sequence. The α-helix and β-sheet motifs, and disulfide bridges, are crucial to the conformations of globular, functional proteins like enzymes, many of which operate semi-independently, but they take on a completely dominant role in the architecture and aggregation of keratins.
The alpha keratin helix is not a true alpha helix, as it only has 3.5 residues/turn, where the normal alpha helix has 3.6 residues/turn. This is important for the different helices to form tight disulfide bonds. Also, roughly every seventh residue is a leucine, so they can line up and help the strands stick together through hydrophobic interactions.
التقرن
Cornification is the process of forming an epidermal barrier in stratified squamous epithelial tissue. At the cellular level, cornification is characterised by:
- production of keratin
- production of small proline-rich (SPRR) proteins and transglutaminase which eventually form a cornified cell envelope beneath the plasma membrane
- terminal differentiation
- loss of nuclei and organelles, in the final stages of cornification metabolism ceases and the cells are almost completely filled by keratin
During the process of epithelial التمايز, cells become cornified as keratin protein is incorporated into longer keratin intermediate filaments. Eventually the nucleus and cytoplasmic organelles disappear, metabolism ceases and cells undergo a programmed death as they become fully keratinized. In many other cell types, such as cells of the dermis, keratin filaments and other intermediate filaments function as part of the cytoskeleton to mechanically stabilize the cell against physical stress. It does this through connections to desmosomes, cell-cell junctional plaques, and hemidesmosomes, cell-basement membrane adhesive structures.
Cells in the epidermis contain a structural matrix of keratin, which makes this outermost layer of the skin almost waterproof, and along with collagen and elastin, gives skin its strength. Rubbing and pressure cause thickening of the outer, cornified layer of the epidermis and form protective calluses — useful for athletes and on the fingertips of musicians who play stringed instruments. Keratinized epidermal cells are constantly shed and replaced (see dandruff).
These hard, integumentary structures are formed by intercellular cementing of fibers formed from the dead, cornified cells generated by specialized beds deep within the skin. Hair grows continuously and feathers moult and regenerate. The constituent proteins may be phylogenetically homologous but differ somewhat in chemical structure and supermolecular organization. The evolutionary relationships are complex and only partially known. Multiple genes have been identified for the β-keratins in feathers, and this is probably characteristic of all keratins.
التفاصيل البنائية

Fibrous keratin molecules supercoil to form a very stable, left-handed superhelical motif to multimerise, forming filaments consisting of multiple copies of the keratin monomer.[18]
Limited interior space is the reason why the triple helix of the (unrelated) structural protein collagen, found in skin, cartilage and bone, likewise has a high percentage of glycine. The connective tissue protein elastin also has a high percentage of both glycine and alanine. Silk fibroin, considered a β-keratin, can have these two as 75–80% of the total, with 10–15% serine, with the rest having bulky side groups. The chains are antiparallel, with an alternating C → N orientation.[19] A preponderance of amino acids with small, nonreactive side groups is characteristic for structural proteins, for which H-bonded close packing is more important than chemical specificity.
جسور الثاني كبريتيد
In addition to intra- and intermolecular hydrogen bonds, the distinguishing feature of keratins is the presence of large amounts of the sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine, required for the disulfide bridges that confer additional strength and rigidity by permanent, thermally stable crosslinking[20]—in much the same way that non-protein sulfur bridges stabilize vulcanized rubber. Human hair is approximately 14% cysteine. The pungent smells of burning hair and skin are due to the volatile sulfur compounds formed. Extensive disulfide bonding contributes to the insolubility of keratins, except in a small number of solvents such as dissociating or reducing agents.

The more flexible and elastic keratins of hair have fewer interchain disulfide bridges than the keratins in mammalian fingernails, hooves and claws (homologous structures), which are harder and more like their analogs in other vertebrate classes.[21] Hair and other α-keratins consist of α-helically coiled single protein strands (with regular intra-chain H-bonding), which are then further twisted into superhelical ropes that may be further coiled. The β-keratins of reptiles and birds have β-pleated sheets twisted together, then stabilized and hardened by disulfide bridges.
Thiolated polymers (thiomers) can form disulfide bridges with cysteine substructures of keratins getting covalently attached to these proteins.[22] Thiomers therefore exhibit high binding properties to keratins found in hair,[23] on skin[24][25] and on the surface of many cell types.[26]
تشكل الخيوط
It was theorized that keratins are combined into 'hard' and 'soft,' or 'cytokeratins' and 'other keratins'[مطلوب توضيح]. That model is now understood to be correct. A new nuclear addition in 2006 to describe keratins takes this into account.[27]
Keratin filaments are intermediate filaments. Like all intermediate filaments, keratin proteins form filamentous polymers in a series of assembly steps beginning with dimerization; dimers assemble into tetramers and octamers and eventually, the current hypothesis holds, into unit-length-filaments (ULF) capable of annealing end-to-end into long filaments.

Silk found in insect pupae, and in spider webs and egg casings, also has twisted β-pleated sheets incorporated into fibers wound into larger supermolecular aggregates. The structure of the spinnerets on spiders’ tails, and the contributions of their interior glands, provide remarkable control of fast extrusion. حرير العنكبوت عادة ما يكون سمكه 1 - 2 ميكرومتر (µm)، بالمقارنة بـ 60 µm للشعر البشري، وأكثر لبعض الثدييات. السمات المفيدة حيوياً وتجارياً لألياف الحرير تعتمد على تنظيم يلاسل بروتين متجاورة متعددة في مناطق بلورية صلبة بأحجام متغيرة متبادلة مع مناطق غير متبلورة مرنة حيث تكون السلاسل randomly coiled.[28] A somewhat analogous situation occurs with synthetic بوليمرات مثل النايلون، developed as a silk substitute. الحرير من hornet cocoon contains doublets about 10 µm across, with cores and coating, and may be arranged in up to 10 layers; also in plaques of variable shape. Adult hornets also use silk as a glue, as do spiders.
