This study suggests that some keratin-associated proteins with antecedents found in non-haired animals may have roles beyond hair characteristics, possibly contributing to the evolution of hair follicles.

This study provides evidence supporting a regulatory relationship between the transcriptional regulator Hoxc13 and Krtap16 genes, which are crucial for proper hair growth in mice.

This study found that Krtap11-1 may play an important role in keratin-bundle assembly in the hair cortex, influencing the physical properties of hair.

In this study, researchers identified six unique genetic variants of a sheep gene, KRTAP19-3, with specific variants linked to changes in wool fibre traits, such as increased fibre diameter variability, suggesting these genetic differences affect wool characteristics in Chinese Tan sheep.

This review examines genetic variation in the ovine KRTAP1.1 gene and its potential impact on wool quality, reporting no new findings but suggesting opportunities for developing gene markers for wool and pelt traits.
