Contributor Information
- Name Irene Leigh
- Institute Cancer Research UK, London Research Institute: Lincoln's Inn Fields
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.
