Keratins (cytokeratins) are intermediate filament proteins that are mainly expressed in epithelial cells. Keratin heterodimers composed of an acidic keratin (or type I keratin, keratins 9 to 23) and a basic keratin (or type II keratin, keratins 1 to 8) assemble to form filaments . Keratin isoforms demonstrate tissue- and differentiation-specific profiles that make them useful as research biomarkers . Research studies have shown that mutations in keratin genes are associated with skin disorders, liver and pancreatic diseases, and inflammatory intestinal diseases.
The antibody was affinity-purified from mouse antiserum by affinity-chromatography using epitope-specific immunogen and the purity is > 95% (by SDS-PAGE).
Form:
Mouse IgG2a. Liquid in PBS containing 50% glycerol, 0.2% BSA and 0.01% sodium azide.
Application Dilute:
WB (1/500 - 1/1000), IHC (1/100 - 1/300)
Application Notes:
Recognizes endogenous levels of Cytokeratin 5 protein.
