Further Information

Application Details :
Western blot: 0.5-1ug/ml,IHC (Paraffin): 1-2ug/ml,Immunohistochemistry (Frozen): 0.5-2ug/ml; formalin or acetone fixed tissues
Application Note:
The stated application concentrations are suggested starting points. Titration of the Cytokeratin 18 antibody may be required due to differences in protocols and secondary/substrate sensitivity.
Description:
Intermediate filaments (IFs) are a structurally related family of cellular proteins that appear to be intimately involved with the cytoskeleton. Human keratin 18 (KRT18) and the homologous mouse Endo B are type I IF protein subunits whose expression is restricted in adults to a variety of simple epithelial tissues. The KRT18 gene is 3,791 bp long and the Cytokeratin 18/Keratin 18 protein is coded for by 7 exons. By Southern blotting using the genomic DNA PCR product, the gene for Cytokeratin 18 has been assigned to chromosome 12. Mutation of human Keratin 18 has been associated with cryptogenic cirrhosis.
