research A gene for monilethrix is closely linked to the type II keratin gene cluster at 12q13
This study mapped monilethrix, a hereditary hair and nail disorder, to the type II keratin cluster on chromosome 12q, marking the first primary human hair disorder localization and implicating defects in "hard" keratins.
research Mapping of monilethrix to the type II keratin gene cluster at chromosome 12q13 in three new families, including one with variable expressivity
This study found that monilethrix in three unrelated European families is linked to the type II keratin gene cluster on chromosome 12q13, with no evidence of defects in type I keratins.
research Characterization of a Cluster of Human High/Ultrahigh Sulfur Keratin-associated Protein Genes Embedded in the Type I Keratin Gene Domain on Chromosome 17q12-21
This study identified a cluster of genes on chromosome 17 related to hair keratin-associated proteins, including 37 genes forming seven multigene families, localized in the hair shaft's upper cortex.
