The disease that Keratin 4 causes is called white sponge nevus. White sponge nevus is an autosomal dominant disease which is caused by a mutation of a certain keratin gene. White sponge nevus is going to be a main componenet for a group of inherited diseases that are going to provide a white bilateral, keratinized apperance typically appearing on the buccal mucosa.

The two way parallel beta-sheet is where the C-terminal strand of one monomer is being positioned and anti-parallel to the N-terminal strand of the main adjacent monomer and this arrangement is not seen so far in any of the homologous structures. This is the <scene name='87/874949/00rainbow_ribbon/1'>Keratin 4 protein</scene>. The C-terminal strand is comprimised of residues from 485-642 that have been identified to essentially bind to Keratin 4. | The two way parallel beta-sheet is where the C-terminal strand of one monomer is being positioned and anti-parallel to the N-terminal strand of the main adjacent monomer and this arrangement is not seen so far in any of the homologous structures.
