Anti-Basic Cytokeratin, clone KRTH/1076

0.2 mg/ml with 0.1 mg/ml BSA (US sourced), 0.05% sodium azide. This mAb recognizes basic (Type II or HMW) cytokeratins, which include 67kDa (CK1), 64kDa (CK3), 59kDa (CK4), 58kDa (CK5), 56kDa (CK6), 52kDa (CK8). Twenty human keratins are resolved with two-dimensional gel electrophoresis into acidic (pI 6.0) subfamilies. The acidic keratins have molecular weights (MW) of 56.5, 55, 51, 50, 50 , 48, 46, 45, and 40kDa. Many studies have shown the usefulness of keratins as markers in cancer research and tumor diagnosis. Protein function: Probably contributes to terminal cornification. [The UniProt Consortium]
