Protein hairless is a protein that in humans is encoded by the HR gene.[5][6][7]


This gene encodes a protein whose function has been linked to hair growth. A similar protein in rat functions as a transcriptional corepressor for thyroid hormone and interacts with histone deacetylases.[7]

Human Genetics

Variations in this gene is involved in low levels of hair (baldness / alopecia / hypotrichosis)[8] Mutations in this gene in humans have been documented in cases of autosomal recessive congenital alopecia [9] and atrichia with papular lesions.[10][11] [12] [13] [14]

The protein contains a Zinc finger domain.[12][10]
