keratinfibrillek
Keratinfibrillek, commonly known as keratin fibrils, refer to the microscopic fibrous structures composed primarily of keratin proteins. These fibrils are fundamental components of various keratinized tissues in vertebrates, including hair, nails, feathers, hooves, and the outer layers of the skin. They provide mechanical strength, flexibility, and resilience to these tissues, enabling them to withstand environmental stresses and mechanical forces.
Keratin fibrils are composed of keratin proteins arranged in a highly organized, filamentous network. The keratin
Structurally, keratin fibrils are embedded within extracellular matrices and are associated with other structural proteins, such
Keratin fibrils are of interest in biomedical research and biomaterials science due to their strength, biocompatibility,
