Tool Details
- Tool name: Anti-Keratin18 [LC18N]
- Clone: LC18N
- Tool type: Antibodies
- Class: Monoclonal
- Conjugate: Unconjugated
- Reactivity: Human
- Host: Mouse
- Application: IHC ; IF ; WB
- Description: Keratins are a family of intermediate filament proteins that assemble into filaments through forming heterodimers of one type I keratin (keratins 9 to 23) and one type II keratin (keratins 1 to 8). Keratins demonstrate tissue and differentiation specific expression profiles. Keratins 8 and 18 are two of the first keratins expressed in the embryo, and persist into adult tissues as the keratin pair representing minimal epithelial keratin expression. Keratins 8 and 18 are major components of all simple epithelia (but not of stratified squamous epithelia) and adenocarcinomas.
- Immunogen: Synthetic pepide of N terminus of human keratin 18 (NH2- SFTTRSTFSC)
- Isotype: IgG1
- Research area: Cell signaling and signal transduction
- For Research Use Only
