Everything about Beta-keratin totally explained
β-keratin or
beta-keratin (not to be confused with
β-carotene) is in contrast to
alpha-keratin, a fibrous protein rich in
alpha helices, rich in stacked
β pleated sheets.
β-keratin adds much more rigidity to
reptilian skin than alpha-keratin does to
mammalian skin.
β-keratin is impregnated into the
stratum corneum of the reptilian skin, providing
waterproofing and the prevention of
desiccation. Bird's
Beaks, claws and feathers are also made from β-keratin
