Advantages of Incomplete Digestion in Human Hair Shaft Proteomics, a Focus on Cuticular Keratins

We developed a facile and robust sample preparation strategy for human hair shafts. The improved sequence coverage in cuticular keratins by shortened and incomplete proteolysis is critical for the identification of genetically variant peptides in keratins.
