The study identified and characterized new keratin genes linked to hair follicles and epithelial tissues.

Human hair keratin genes hHa2 and hHb1 are located on chromosomes 17 and 12.

The hHa7 gene is regulated by androgens in certain body hair, not scalp hair.

Type I keratin genes are closely linked to the rex locus on mouse chromosome 11, affecting hair development.

Cetaceans lost hair genes to adapt to water.

Mutations in the KRT85 gene cause hair and nail problems.

Mutations in specific keratin genes cause improper hair structure in mice due to faulty keratin protein assembly.

Mutations in the Whn gene affect hair keratin gene expression differently.

Certain genetic variants in keratins increase the risk of tooth decay.

Most mouse hair keratin genes are on chromosomes 11 and 15.

Human hair keratin genes are similar to mouse genes and are specifically expressed in hair follicles.

The NF-κB effector p65/RelA activates hair keratin genes, aiding hair formation.

A new mutation in the KRT86 gene causes monilethrix in a Han family.
