Product Details anti-Cytokeratin 5 Antibody

Purpose: Recombinant Cytokeratin 5/6 (Basal, Myoepithelial & Mesothelial Cell Marker) Antibody

Specificity: Cytokeratin 5 is a basic protein that is closely related to cytokeratin 6. They share similar tissue distribution and are found in various proportions in many non-keratinizing stratified squamous epithelia eg. tongue mucosa, as well as in basal epithelia of trachea, basal cells of epidermis, hair follicles, sebaceous and sweat glands of skin, luminal cells of the mammary gland, basal cells of prostate, urothelium, vagina and endocervical mucosa. Cytokeratins 5 and 6 are also expressed in basal cell epitheliomas, squamous cell carcinomas of skin, tongue, epiglottis and of the rectal-anal region. Cytokeratin 5&6 is a useful aid for classification of epithelioid mesotheliomas.

Purification: 200ug/ml of Ab purified from Bioreactor Concentrate by Protein A/G.

Immunogen: Recombinant fragments of human Cytokeratin 5 (KRT5) and Cytokeratin 6 proteins (exact sequences are proprietary)
