5 / 1000+ resultsresearch Regulation of hard α-keratin mechanics via control of intermediate filament hydration: matrix squeeze revisited
Hard α-keratins stay stiff in water because the surrounding matrix keeps them dehydrated and strong.
research Three-dimensional modelling of interchain sequence similarities and differences in the coiled-coil segments of keratin intermediate filament heterodimers highlight features important in assembly
Keratin heterodimers are preferred for their specific and structural advantages.
research Self-consistent field theory for the interactions between keratin intermediate filaments
Keratin filaments' elasticity is influenced by their terminal domains and surrounding medium.
research Carbon-13 n.m.r. studies of keratin intermediate filament of human hair
Human hair keratin has a 40% α-helix structure that changes to a random coil in 8 M urea.
