Cytokeratin 8 Antibody (rKRT8/4209) - Azide and BSA Free Summary

• Description: Prepared in 10mM PBS WITHOUT BSA & azide at 1.0mg/ml. Also available with 0.05% BSA & 0.05% azide.
  
  Antibody with azide - store at 2 to 8 C. Antibody without azide - store at -20 to -80 C. Antibody is stable for 24 months. Non-hazardous.
• Additional Information: Recombinant Monoclonal Antibody
• Immunogen: Recombinant full-length human KRT8 protein (Uniprot: P05787)
• Localization: Cytoplasm, Nucleoplasm, Nucleus, Nucleus matrix
• Specificity: Anti-CK8 does not react with skeletal muscle or nerve cells. Epithelioid sarcoma, chordoma, and adamantinoma show strong positivity corresponding to that of simple epithelia (with antibodies against CK8, CK18 and CK19). Anti-CK8 is useful for the differentiation of lobular ( ring-like, perinuclear ) from ductal ( peripheral-predominant ) carcinoma of the breast.

Background

Cytokeratins are a subfamily of intermediate filaments and characterized by remarkable biochemical diversity. Cytokeratins are represented in epithelial tissues by at least 20 different polypeptides, molecular weight between 40 kDa and 68 kDa. The individual cytokeratin polypeptides are designated 1 to 20 and divided into the type I (acidic cytokeratins 9-20) and type II (basic to neutral cytokeratins 1-8) families.
