High glycine–tyrosine keratin-associated proteins help make hair strong and maintain its shape.

The 3D structure of a key hair protein was modeled, revealing specific helical structures and stabilization features.

Different hair types in mammals are linked to variations in specific protein genes, with changes influenced by their living environments.

Sheep have a unique gene, KAP8-2, that humans don't have, which may affect wool properties.

Some hair protein genes evolved early and were adapted for use in hair follicles.

Feed restriction in sheep leads to finer wool fibers but may reduce wool quality.

KAP genes show significant genetic variability, but its impact on hair traits is unclear.

The KRTAP7-1 gene is very similar across different cattle and yak breeds and likely plays a role in hair strength and shape.
