NCBI Description

KRT18 encodes the type I intermediate filament chain keratin 18. Keratin 18, together with its filament partner keratin 8, are perhaps the most commonly found members of the intermediate filament gene family. They are expressed in single layer epithelial tissues of the body. Mutations in this gene have been linked to cryptogenic cirrhosis. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

K18: a type I cytoskeletal keratin. The keratins are intermediate filament proteins responsible for the structural integrity of epithelial cells and are subdivided into cytokeratins and hair keratins. Keratin 18 and its filament partner keratin 8 are perhaps the most commonly found members of the intermediate filament gene family. They are expressed in single layer epithelial tissues of the body. Defects are a cause of cryptogenic cirrhosis.

Protein type: Cytoskeletal; Nucleolus

Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13

Cellular Component: perinuclear region of cytoplasm; keratin filament; cytoplasm; nucleolus; microtubule organizing center; intermediate filament

Biological Process: anatomical structure morphogenesis; tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway; viral reproduction; intermediate filament cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis; cell cycle; Golgi to plasma membrane CFTR protein transport; negative regulation of apoptosis

Product Notes

The KRT18 krt18 (Catalog #AAA6243778) is an Antibody produced from Mouse and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Cytokeratin 18 (HRP) reacts with Canine, Chicken, Hamster, Human, Mouse, Porcine, Rabbit, Rat and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's Cytokeratin 18 can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Flow Cytometry (FC/FACS), Immunocytochemistry (ICC), Immunohistochemistry (IHC), Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the KRT18 krt18 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Cytokeratin 18, Monoclonal Antibody" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
