Keratin (/ ˈ k ɛr ə t ɪ n / [1] [2]) is one of a family of structural fibrous proteins also known as scleroproteins. It is the key structural material making up scales , hair , nails , feathers , horns , claws , hooves , and the outer layer of skin in vertebrates.
[1] [2] These two groups of keratins were named as type I and type II keratins. [2] These two categories also represent the first two categories of the superfamily of intermediate filament proteins. Keratins in this table are classified in the first two columns according to the nomenclature established in 2006. [3]

Keratins belong to two types - acidic Type I and neutral-basic Type II, further categorized into Type I a and b, and Type II a and b. The initial step in forming keratin is the alignment of type I and type II keratin polypeptides to create a heterodimer, which then aggregates into higher-order structural units. [2]
Keratin, type II cuticular Hb1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the KRT81 gene. [5] [6] [7]The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the keratin gene family. As a type II hair keratin, it is a basic protein which heterodimerizes with type I keratins to form hair and nails.
