Overview
Cytokeratins are a subfamily of intermediate filaments and are characterized by remarkable biochemical diversity. They 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.
Specificity:
The mouse monoclonal antibody C-51 recognizes cytokeratin 8 (52.5 kDa) . Cytokeratins are members of intermediate filaments subfamily of intracellular proteins represented in epithelial tissues.
