A new pair of mouse keratins, 65 kD and 48 kD, are found in specific skin areas and are linked to a unique skin differentiation type.
research Wool fiber curvature is correlated with abundance of K38 and specific keratin‐associated proteins
Wool fiber curliness is linked to the presence of certain proteins and K38.
research Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) forms part of the connective tissue of normal human hair follicles
A protein called COMP is part of the connective tissue in normal human hair follicles and may be important for hair health.
research Sequences and differential expression of three novel human type-II hair keratins
Hair differentiation starts earlier than thought, involving multiple type-II keratins.
