Transglutaminase activity is important for skin and is found in both mammals and birds.
research A Splice Site Mutation in the Gene of the Human Type I Hair Keratin hHa1 Results in the Expression of a Tailless Keratin Isoform
A genetic mutation in the hHa1 gene creates a smaller, but still functional, hair protein without causing hair problems.
research Referee report. For: Hair greying in castrated mice [version 1; peer review: 1 approved with reservations]
Androgen loss may speed up hair greying.
research Hair greying in castrated mice
Removing hair from mice without reproductive glands led to grey hair, possibly helping to understand greying in aging.
research Hemostatic properties and the role of cell receptor recognition in human hair keratin protein hydrogels
Keratin from human hair shows promise for medical uses like wound healing and tissue engineering.
research The importance of basonuclin 2 in adult mice and its relation to basonuclin 1
Basonuclin 2 is vital for the development of facial bones, hair follicles, and male germ cells in adult mice, and its absence can lead to dwarfism and abnormal follicles.
research Adsorption of Diclofenac and PFBS on a Hair Keratin Dimer
Human hair keratin might be good for filtering out harmful substances from water.
research Identification of reptilian genes encoding hair keratin-like proteins suggests a new scenario for the evolutionary origin of hair
Reptiles have genes similar to hair proteins, suggesting hair's genetic origins predate mammals.
research Evolution of hard proteins in the sauropsid integument in relation to the cornification of skin derivatives in amniotes
Hard skin features like scales, feathers, and hair evolved through specific protein changes in different animal groups.
research The Intermediate Filament Architecture as Determined by X-Ray Diffraction Modeling of Hard α-Keratin
Hard α-keratin in hair has a unique, nonordered structure, different from other fibers.
research Two Different Mutations in the Same Codon of a Type II Hair Keratin (hHb6) in Patients with Monilethrix
Mutations in the hHb6 gene cause the hair disorder monilethrix.
research Health improvement of human hair and their reshaping using recombinant keratin K31
Recombinant keratin K31 makes damaged hair thicker, stronger, and straighter.
research Macrofibril Formation
research Contribution of Environmental Constituents in the Genomic Disruption of Cytokeratins
Environmental factors can cause mutations in skin proteins, leading to skin disorders.

Extracted keratin from wool and hair can be used in medicine and bioengineering.
research Comparative histomorphometric and transcriptomic analysis reveals potential genetic determinants of pelage variation between hairy and coarse-woolly sheep
Genetic differences in sheep affect wool type, with fat and immune genes influencing hair traits.
research Cornified Epithelial Teeth of Jawless Vertebrates Contain Proteins Similar to Keratin-Associated Proteins of Mammalian Skin Appendages
Jawless vertebrates have teeth proteins similar to those in mammalian hair and nails.
research Non-invasive assessment of hair regeneration in androgenetic alopecia mice in vivo using two-photon and second harmonic generation imaging
New imaging techniques show testosterone delays hair growth and shrinks follicles in mice, but have limited depth for viewing.
research Science and Technology of Hair Fibers
The document concludes that understanding hair's composition and the effects of treatments can lead to better hair care products.
research Analysing the dynamics of a model for alopecia areata as an autoimmune disorder of hair follicle cycling
The model helps understand and improve treatments for alopecia areata by simulating hair growth and immune cell interactions.
research Molecular evolution of the keratin associated protein gene family in mammals, role in the evolution of mammalian hair
KRTAP genes evolved early in mammals, leading to diverse hair traits.
