Target Details for Cytokeratin 5

Target: Cytokeratin 5 (KRT5) (Keratin 5 (KRT5))

Alternative Name: Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 5

Background:

Target Description: It reacts with keratin 5 (58 kDa) and keratin 8 (52.5 kDa). Simple epithelia express cytokeratin 8 in combination with 18. On the other hand, basal cells of stratified epithelia express cytokeratin 5 paired with 14. This antibody therefore, reacts with a wide range of epithelia and their carcinomas.

Gene Symbol: KRT5///KRT8///CYK8

UniProt: P13647, P05787
