research Characterization of a Hair (Wool) Keratin Intermediate Filament Gene Domain
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 Immunohistochemical demonstration of keratins in the epidermal layers of the Malayan pangolin (Manis javanica), with remarks on the evolution of the integumental scale armour
Keratins in Malayan pangolins vary by region, suggesting scales evolved from the tail towards the head.
research Keratin intermediate filaments in the colon: guardians of epithelial homeostasis
Keratin proteins are essential for keeping the cells in the human colon healthy and stable.
