Tool Details

  • Tool name: Anti-Keratin 1 [LL017]
  • Clone: LL017
  • Tool type: Antibodies
  • Tool sub-type: Primary antibody
  • Class: Monoclonal
  • Conjugate: Unconjugated
  • Reactivity: Human
  • Host: Mouse
  • Application: IHC ; IHC
  • 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. Keratin 1 is differentiation specific keratin that is one of the predominant keratins in suprabasal keratinocytes in stratified epthelia. Mutations in keratin 1 causes epidermolytic hyperkeratosis. LL017 does not react with any tumour tissue regardless of histological classification.
  • Immunogen: Synthetic peptide - VSTTYSGVTR
  • Isotype: IgM
  • Research area: Cell signaling and signal transduction
  • Myeloma used: Sp2/0-Ag14

  • For Research Use Only
