New mutations in hair keratin genes cause the rare hair disorder monilethrix.

A new sheep gene, KRTAP36-1, may help breed sheep with better wool by reducing prickle factor.

Sheep and goat hair fibers are complex due to keratin-associated proteins, which are important for fiber properties and growth.

The KRTAP21-1 gene affects wool yield and can help improve wool production.

Yak belly hair has higher porosity and is less stiff than human hair, making it absorb dye better but less suitable as a direct substitute for hair dyeing.

The KRTAP21-2 gene affects wool length and quality in sheep.

Higher keratin protein levels are important for the wool's shine in Magra sheep.

Extracted keratin from wool and hair can be used in medicine and bioengineering.
