MA5-15460 targets Cytokeratin 8 in indirect ELISA, IF, IHC, and WB applications and shows reactivity with Human samples.
The MA5-15460 immunogen is purified recombinant fragment of human Cytokeratin (aa391-483) expressed in E. Coli.
MA5-15460 detects Cytokeratin 8 which has a predicted molecular weight of approximately 54kDa.
Cytokeratin 8 is a member of the type II keratin family clustered on the long arm of chromosome 12. Type I and type II keratins heteropolymerize to form intermediate-sized filaments in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells. Cutokeratin 8 typically dimerizes with keratin 18 to form an intermediate filament in simple single-layered epithelial cells. This protein plays a role in maintaining cellular structural integrity and also functions in signal transduction and cellular differentiation. Mutations in this gene cause cryptogenic cirrhosis.
