Cytokeratin, HMW Antibody (34BE12) [PerCP] Summary

• Description: This conjugate is made on demand. Actual recovery may vary from the stated volume of this product. The volume will be greater than or equal to the unit size stated on the datasheet.
• Immunogen: Solubilized keratin extract from human stratum corneum
• Localization: Cytoplasmic
• Marker: Epithelial Marker
• Specificity: This antibody recognizes CK1, CK5, CK10 and CK14. In normal epithelia, it stains stratified epithelia, myoepithelial cells and basal cells in the prostate gland and bronchi. This monoclonal antibody shows no reactivity with hepatocytes, pancreatic acinar cells, proximal renal tubules, or endometrial glands; there is no reactivity with cells derived from simple epithelia. Mesenchymal tumors, lymphomas, melanomas, neural tumors, and neuroendocrine tumors are negative with this antibody. It stains myoepithelial cells and has been shown to be useful in distinguishing prostate adenocarcinoma from benign prostate. This antibody has also been useful in separating benign from malignant intraductal breast proliferations.

Background

KRT76, also known as Keratin, type II cytoskeletal 2 oral, is a 638 amino acid that is approx. 66 kDa, belongs to the intermediate filament family responsible for the structural integrity of epithelial cells, subdivided into epithelial keratins and hair keratins, and probably contributes to terminal cornification. Studies are being performed in relation to this protein and obstructive jaundice, pharyngitis, jaundice, cervical cancer, neuronitis, colorectal cancer, cervicitis, interferon and hepatitis. This protein has been shown to have interactions with ATG13, PDPK1, ULK2, GABARAP, and PRKAA1 in cytoskeleton organization pathways.
