30-60 / 1000+ resultsresearch Mutations in the helix termination motif of mouse type I IRS keratin genes impair the assembly of keratin intermediate filament
Mutations in specific keratin genes cause improper hair structure in mice due to faulty keratin protein assembly.
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.
