Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-Cytokeratin [K20]
  • Clone: K20
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Molecular weight of the target: 46-67 kDa
  • Application: IHC ; IHC ; WB
  • Description: Keratins are a family of intermediate filament proteins that assemble into filaments through forming heterodimers of one type I keratin (keratins 9 to 23) and one type II keratin (keratins 1 to 8). Keratins demonstrate tissue and differentiation specific expression profiles.
  • Immunogen: Hair keratin
  • Isotype: IgG2a kappa

  • Myeloma used: P3/NS1/1-Ag4.1

  • For Research Use Only

Target Details

  • Target: Cytokeratins of 46, 48, 50, 55, 56, 56.5, 59, 61, 62, 64, 65, 66 and 67 kDa
  • Target molecular weight: 46-67 kDa
  • Target background: Keratins are a family of intermediate filament proteins that assemble into filaments through forming heterodimers of one type I keratin (keratins 9 to 23) and one type II keratin (keratins 1 to 8). Keratins demonstrate tissue and differentiation specific expression profiles.
