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

Only a few hair-specific keratins are linked to inherited hair disorders.

Certain gene mutations are linked to wool quality in sheep and could help in breeding for better wool.

Hairless protein affects hair follicle structure by regulating the Dlx3 gene.

A new keratin, hK6irs1, is found in all layers of the hair follicle's inner root sheath.

The enzymes Tet2 and Tet3 are important for skin cell development and hair growth.

Specific genes influence hair and cashmere growth in Laiwu black goats.

Human beard hair medulla contains a unique and complex mix of keratins not found in other human tissues.

Selective breeding caused the unique curly hair in Mangalitza pigs.

The genes KRT25 and SP6 affect curly hair in horses, with KRT25 also causing hair loss. If both genes are mutated, the horse gets curly hair and hair loss. KRT25 can hide the effect of SP6.

Two mutations in KRT74 and EDAR genes cause sheep to have finer wool.

A specific mutation in the K25 gene causes a rare genetic disorder with curly hair at birth and later hair loss, along with dental issues.

Genetic changes in mice help understand skin and hair disorders, aiding treatment development for acne and hair loss.

A gene variant in KRT71 causes the curly fur in Selkirk Rex cats.

The study identified and characterized new keratin genes linked to hair follicles and epithelial tissues.

Scientists made structures that look like human hair follicles using stem cells, which could help grow hair without using actual human tissue.

IRS-specific genes in Tan sheep hair follicles peak at birth and may affect wool crimp.

Scientists have found specific genes linked to different hair loss conditions, which could lead to new treatments.

Some hair loss disorders are caused by genetic mutations affecting hair growth.

Genetic mutations cause various hair diseases, and whole genome sequencing may reveal more about these conditions.

Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.

New treatments targeting specific genes show promise for treating keratin disorders.

The study concluded that a protein important for hair strength is regulated by certain molecular processes and is affected by growth phases.

The document concludes that understanding the genes and pathways involved in hair growth is crucial for developing treatments for hair diseases.

A cluster of sulfur-rich hair protein genes was found on chromosome 17.

Keratin 33A is a key protein in goat winter coats, especially in high-producing breeds.

The document concludes that the human keratin gene cluster is complex, with a need for updated naming to reflect over 50 functional genes important for hair and skin biology.

Keratin protein production in cells is controlled by a complex system that changes with cell type, health, and conditions like injury or cancer.

Human hair is made up of different keratins, some strong and some weak, with specific types appearing at various stages of hair growth.

The research identified genes and pathways important for sheep wool growth and shedding.
