Dynamic evolution of the alpha (a) and beta (ß) keratins has accompanied integument diversification and the adaptation of birds into novel lifestyles

Background: Vertebrate skin appendages are constructed of keratins produced by multigene families. Alpha (a) keratins are found in all vertebrates, while beta (ß) keratins are found exclusively in reptiles and birds. We have studied the molecular evolution of these gene families in the genomes of 48...
