THE SPECIFICITY OF KERATINS

L. Pillemer Ph.D.1, E. E. Ecker Ph.D.1, and J. R. Wells 1

1 From the Institute of Pathology, Western Reserve University and the University Hospitals, Cleveland

Kerateine and metakeratin were prepared from wool, chicken feathers and human hair. Chemical analyses revealed that the compounds are closely related.

The results of serological studies disclose that species specificity is an individual characteristic of the keratins employed and that the specificity observed is dependent on the redox state of the sulfhydryl groupings in the protein molecule.
