Sheep have a unique gene, KAP8-2, that humans don't have, which may affect wool properties.
research Ancient lineages of the keratin-associated protein (KRTAP) genes and their co-option in the evolution of the hair follicle
Some hair protein genes evolved early and were adapted for use in hair follicles.
research From Plants to Wound Dressing and Transdermal Delivery of Bioactive Compounds
Plant-based compounds can improve wound dressings and skin medication delivery.
research Nutrition and Hair
