Leg hair follicle it pushed older cells out and that is what becomes the leg hair. After the older cells become hard and leave the follicle, they form a hair shaft. The hair shaft is mostly made up of dead tissue and a protein that is known as keratin. It is said that hair growth occurs during the "growing" phase of the follicle, and then retained as dead club hair during the "resting" phase. The old club hair might be lost within the following "growing" phase. Men are seen to be much hairier than women, even though men and women are much
Cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1 may belong to a new gene family. This family also contains the "Homo sapiens" cisplatin resistance related protein CRR9p which is associated with CDDP-induced apoptosis. Cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1 Cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the "CLPTM1" gene. It belongs to a family of several eukaryotic cleft lip and palate transmembrane protein 1 sequences. Cleft lip with or without cleft palate is a common birth defect that is genetically complex. The nonsyndromic forms have been studied genetically using linkage and candidate-gene association studies with only partial success
