Product Name :
Cytokeratin 14

Description :
| Clone LL002 | Isotype IgG3 | Units 5 ml | Host Mouse | Application Immunohistochemistry (frozen) Immunohistochemistry (paraffin)

Background :
Immunogen: C-terminal 15-AA peptide of cytokeratin 14 conjugated to thyroglobulin

Source :
Cytokeratin 14 (CK14) belongs to the acid subfamily of CKs (Type I) and is characteristic of stratifying epithelia (trachea, bronchi, cervix, epidermis, sweat glands). The antibody to CK14 is helpful to distinguish between stratifying epithelia and simple epithelia, which don’t express this type of cytokeratins. Tumours of squamous cell origin will be stained with this antibody. Cytokeratins are a group of water-insoluble filamentous proteins. They are constituents of the cytoskeleton of epidermal cells and other epithelial cells. Up to now 20 different cytokeratins have been characterised by gel electrophoresis. They have been subdivided into a basic and an acid subfamily. Most frequently the nomenclature according to Moll et al. (1982) is used. Human cytokeratin 14. <

Antibodies are immunoglobulins secreted by effector lymphoid B cells into the bloodstream. Antibodies consist of two light peptide chains and two heavy peptide chains that are linked to each other by disulfide bonds to form a “Y” shaped structure. Both tips of the “Y” structure contain binding sites for a specific antigen. Antibodies are commonly used in medical research, pharmacological research, laboratory research, and health and epidemiological research. They play an important role in hot research areas such as targeted drug development, in vitro diagnostic assays, characterization of signaling pathways, detection of protein expression levels, and identification of candidate biomarkers.
