Abstract excerpt

Hair fiber differentiation and maturation involves the close interaction between hair keratins and their associated proteins, KAPs. Recently, a cluster of seven human KAP multigen families has been identified on chromosome 17q12-21 among which were four hKAP1 genes (hKAP1.1B, hKAP1.3, hKAP1.4, and hKAP1.5). In addition, there were previous as well as recent reports on four additional hKAP1 genes (hKAP1.1A,...
