research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research The role of disulfide bond formation in the structural transition observed in the intermediate filaments of developing hair
Disulfide bonds are crucial for hair structure during keratinization.
research The structure of human trichohyalin : potential multiple roles as a functional ef-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
Trichohyalin is a versatile protein involved in hair and skin structure.
research From structural resilience to cell specification — Intermediate filaments as regulators of cell fate
Intermediate filaments are crucial for cell differentiation and stem cell function.
research Structural Hierarchy of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Keratin proteins are crucial for hair growth and structure.
research The structure of human trichohyalin. Potential multiple roles as a functional EF-hand-like calcium-binding protein, a cornified cell envelope precursor, and an intermediate filament-associated (cross-linking) protein
