research Sequence, expression, and evolutionary conservation of a gene encoding a glycine/tyrosine-rich keratin-associated protein of hair.

76 citations , February 1993 in “Journal of Biological Chemistry”

This research observed that sheep and rabbit KAP6 genes, expressed in hair follicle cells, have high sequence similarity and indicate conservation due to evolutionary selection pressures.

research Characterisation of an Ovine Keratin Associated Protein (KAP) Gene, Which Would Produce a Protein Rich in Glycine and Tyrosine, but Lacking in Cysteine

24 citations , October 2019 in “Genes”

In this study, the identification of a novel KAP gene in sheep, named KRTAP36-1, was associated with increased prickle factor in wool, suggesting its potential as a genetic marker for breeding purposes.

research Human Hair Keratin‐Associated Proteins (KAPs)

226 citations , January 2006 in “International review of cytology”

Keratin-associated proteins are crucial for hair strength and structure.

research The sheep KAP8-2 gene, a new KAP8 family member that is absent in humans

25 citations , September 2014 in “SpringerPlus”

This study found that sheep possess a polymorphic KAP8-2 gene that shares high sequence identity with the KAP8-2 gene in goats and reindeer.

research Molecular modeling and structural characterization of a high glycine–tyrosine hair keratin associated protein

16 citations , January 2017 in “Physical chemistry chemical physics/PCCP. Physical chemistry chemical physics”

This study presents computational modeling and experimental analysis of the HGT protein KAP8.1, identifying key structural features that may influence hair's response to environmental conditions.
