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 Sequences and differential expression of three novel human type-II hair keratins
Hair differentiation starts earlier than thought, involving multiple type-II keratins.
research Preparing the hair follicle canal for hair shaft emergence
A specific type of skin cell creates an opening for hair to grow out, and problems with this process can lead to skin conditions.
