540-570 / 1000+ resultsresearch Characterization of a Hair (Wool) Keratin Intermediate Filament Gene Domain
research A Novel Mouse Type I Intermediate Filament Gene, Keratin 17n (K17n), Exhibits Preferred Expression in Nail Tissue
A new mouse gene, Keratin 17n, is mainly found in nail tissue and may explain why mice without Keratin 17 don't have nail issues.
research Structural Transition of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments During Development in the Hair Follicle
research Structure and Mechanical Properties of Human Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filament Protein
Disulfide bonds make keratin in hair stronger and tougher.
research Role of human type II hair keratins in intermediate filament bundling in vitro
research Cornification in reptilian epidermis occurs through the deposition of keratin‐associated beta‐proteins (beta‐keratins) onto a scaffold of intermediate filament keratins
Reptile skin hardens by layering beta-proteins on keratin.
research BMP4 and nuclear laminC orchestrate a expression of AHF/Trichohyalin molecule, a key modulator of keratin intermediate filaments in the hair follicle
research Epidermolysis Bullosa Simplex Caused by Distal Truncation of BPAG1-e: An Intermediate Generalized Phenotype with Prurigo Papules
A rare gene mutation causes skin fragility and itching without affecting hair or nails.
research Unzipping the cuticle of the human hair shaft to obtain micron/nano keratin filaments
Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.
research The Keratins of the Human Beard Hair Medulla: The Riddle in the Middle
Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.
research Structural analysis of human hair single fibres by scanning microbeam SAXS
Hair curliness is due to uneven distribution of different cortices within the hair fiber.
research The proteomics of keratin proteins
Modern techniques have improved the understanding of keratin proteins, revealing their roles in various cells and potential in disease diagnosis.
research Three-dimensional architecture of macrofibrils in the human scalp hair cortex
Human hair has a complex, variable structure with a consistent matrix and double-twist pattern.
research The Type I Keratin 19 Possesses Distinct and Context-dependent Assembly Properties
Keratin 19 forms less stable and shorter filaments than keratin 14, giving unique traits to certain skin cells.
research Bidirectional binding property of high glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated protein contributes to the mechanical strength and shape of hair
High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.
research Against the Rules: Human Keratin K80
Keratin K80 is an ancient protein found in various tissues, important for cell structure and tissue differentiation.
research The cDNA-deduced amino acid sequence for trichohyalin, a differentiation marker in the hair follicle, contains a 23 amino acid repeat.
Trichohyalin, a hair follicle protein, has a part with repeating patterns of 23 amino acids.
research Effect of shampoo, conditioner and permanent waving on the molecular structure of human hair
Perming significantly changes hair's molecular structure, while shampoo and conditioner do not.
research A Splice Site Mutation in the Gene of the Human Type I Hair Keratin hHa1 Results in the Expression of a Tailless Keratin Isoform
A genetic mutation in the hHa1 gene creates a smaller, but still functional, hair protein without causing hair problems.
research Characterisation of low abundance wool proteins through novel differential extraction techniques
New techniques helped identify rare wool proteins by reducing dominant ones.
research Keratin expression by corneal and limbal stem cells during development
Different types of cells in the eye express specific keratins at various stages of development.
research Local structure of human hair spatially resolved by sub-micron X-ray beam
Human hair has a new region with ordered filaments and the cuticle contains β-keratin sheets.
research HAIR KERATINIZATION IN HEALTH AND DISEASE
Understanding intermediate filaments helps explain hair health and related diseases.
research Sequence and expression of human hair keratin genes
Human hair keratin genes are similar to mouse genes and are specifically expressed in hair follicles.
research Action of Thioglycolic Acid and L-Cysteine to Disulfide Cross-Links in Hair Fibers during Permanent Waving Treatment
Thioglycolic acid and L-cysteine change hair structure differently during perms, affecting hair strength and curling efficiency.
research Morphology and ultrastructure of antler velvet hair and body hair from red deer (Cervus elaphus)
Antler velvet hair and body hair of red deer have different structures that help with protection and insulation.
research Keratins: the hair shaft's backbone revealed
Keratins are crucial for hair strength, and mutations in certain keratin genes cause hair disorders.
research Changes in the Molecular Structure of Hair in Insulin-Dependent Diabetes
Insulin-dependent diabetes alters hair's molecular structure, making it useful for studying diabetes effects.
