Molecular evolution of the keratin associated protein gene family in mammals, role in the evolution of mammalian hair

BACKGROUND: Hair is unique to mammals. Keratin associated proteins (KRTAPs), which contain two major groups: high/ultrahigh cysteine and high glycine-tyrosine, are one of the major components of hair and play essential roles in the formation of rigid and resistant hair shafts. RESULTS: The KRTAP fam...
