Summary
{"type": "root", "children": [{"type": "p", "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "\n Keratin-associated protein KRTAP11-1 is emerging as a key structural and regulatory component in hair and wool fiber formation. Studies indicate that KRTAP11-1 participates in the assembly and stabilization of keratin bundles in the hair cortex through cohesive self‐assembly that is often reinforced by disulfide cross-linking. Its expression is tightly regulated during the keratinization process, with spatial deposition in the hair cortex contributing to the physical properties of the fiber. Moreover, functional investigations have shown that altered expression of KRTAP11-1 can modulate the expression of key hair follicle regulatory genes—including members of the WNT, BMP, and TGF‐β signaling pathways—thus influencing hair follicle development and the overall architecture of the hair shaft. In sheep, promoter analysis confirmed that regulatory regions of the KRTAP11-1 gene drive cortex-specific transcription, and genetic variation in this gene may affect post-translational modifications (such as phosphorylation) of the protein, thereby impacting fiber structure and quality. Collectively, these findings underline the importance of KRTAP11-1 in mediating keratin–keratin associated protein interactions, which in turn determine hair fiber strength, elasticity, and other physical characteristics."}, {"type": "fg", "children": [{"type": "fg_fs", "start_ref": "1", "end_ref": "4"}]}, {"type": "t", "text": "\n "}]}, {"type": "rg", "children": [{"type": "r", "ref": 1, "children": [{"type": "t", "text": "Shunsuke Fujimoto, Takahisa Takase, Nanako Kadono, et al.
