HR is a gene encoding Protein hairless. ^{[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 are 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]}
