research Mammalian keratin associated proteins (KRTAPs) subgenomes: disentangling hair diversity and adaptation to terrestrial and aquatic environments
Different hair types in mammals are linked to variations in specific protein genes, with changes influenced by their living environments.
research Unique amino acid signatures that are evolutionarily conserved distinguish simple-type, epidermal and hair keratins
Different keratin types have unique amino acid patterns that are evolutionarily conserved.
research Increased expression of keratin 16 causes anomalies in cytoarchitecture and keratinization in transgenic mouse skin.
Too much keratin 16 in mice skin causes abnormal skin thickening and structure.
research An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
