Keratin proteins are crucial for healthy skin, but mutations can cause skin disorders with no effective treatments yet.

Mutations in specific keratin genes cause improper hair structure in mice due to faulty keratin protein assembly.

Bleaching hair damages protein structure, especially keratin, leading to weakened hair.

Keratin 26 affects cashmere goat hair growth and is influenced by various treatments.

Keratin proteins are consistent across different hair types from the same person.

Keratin-associated proteins are part of the developing hair fiber cuticle.

Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.

Certain small molecules and polymers can change hair's physical properties and how it feels by affecting the bonds within the hair.

Human hair was used to make biodegradable plastic films that could be useful for packaging and disposable products.

Human hair keratin might be good for filtering out harmful substances from water.
