GlossaryS100A3

protein in hair cuticles involved in growth and structure

S100A3 is a protein that belongs to the S100 family, which is known for its role in calcium-binding. This particular protein is highly expressed in human hair cuticles and is thought to be involved in hair growth and structure. It can bind to both calcium and zinc, which may influence hair's physical properties and resilience.
