Keratin intermediate filaments constitute the primary cytoskeletal component of epithelial cells. Numerous human disease phenotypes related to keratin mutation remain mechanistically elusive. Our recent crystal structures of the helix 1B heterotetramer from keratin 1/10 enabled further investigation of the effect of pathologic 1B domain mutations on keratin structure. We used our highest resolution keratin 1B structure as a template for homology-modeling the 1B heterotetramers of keratin 5/14 (associated with blistering skin di
