A 3-month stay in space causes skin thinning, disrupts hair growth, and changes muscle-related genes in mice.
research Transcriptome Profile at Different Physiological Stages Reveals Potential Mode for Curly Fleece in Chinese Tan Sheep
Genetic differences between young and old Tan sheep explain why their fleece changes from curly to straight as they age.
research Variation in the Exon 3–4 Region of Ovine KRT85 and Its Effect on Wool Traits
KRT85 gene variations can help improve wool traits in sheep through selective breeding.
research A new heterozygous frameshift variant in keratin 10 resulting in ichthyosis hystrix in a father and daughter
A new genetic change in the keratin 10 gene caused a skin condition called ichthyosis hystrix in a father and his daughter.
research An epistatic effect of KRT25 on SP6 is involved in curly coat in horses
The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.

Genes linked to wool fineness in sheep have been identified.
research Cloning of human, murine, and marsupial keratin 7 and a survey of K7 expression in the mouse
The research cloned keratin 7 genes from humans, mice, and marsupials, found similarities between human and mouse genes, and discovered new areas of K7 expression in mice.
research A Missense Mutation within the Helix Termination Motif of KRT25 Causes Autosomal Dominant Woolly Hair/Hypotrichosis
A mutation in the KRT25 gene causes woolly hair and hair loss.
research miR-129-5p Participates in Hair Follicle Growth by Targeting HOXC13 in Rabbit
miR-129-5p affects hair growth by targeting the HOXC13 gene.
