Inactivation of DNase1L2 and DNase2 in keratinocytes suppresses DNA degradation during epidermal cornification and results in constitutive parakeratosis

Abstract The stratum corneum of the epidermis constitutes the mammalian skin barrier to the environment. It is formed by cornification of keratinocytes, a process which involves the removal of nuclear DNA. Here, we investigated the mechanism of cornification-associated DNA degradation by generating...
