ELISA (EIA), Western Blot (WB), Immunofluorescence (IF)
app notes :
KRT18 antibody has been tested by ELISA, Western blot and Immunofluorescence analysis to assure specificity and reactivity. Since application varies, however, each investigation should be titrated by the reagent to obtain optimal results. Recommended dilution range for Western blot analysis and Immunofluorescence is 1:250 ~ 1000.Recommended starting dilution is 1:500.

products description :
Introduction: 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.

uniprot summary :
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; intermediate filament; microtubule organizing center. Molecular Function: protein binding; structural molecule activity. Biological Process: anatomical structure morphogenesis; tumor necrosis factor-mediated signaling pathway; viral reproduction; intermediate filament cytoskeleton organization and biogenesis; cell cycle; negative regulation of apoptosis; Golgi to plasma membrane CFTR protein transport. Disease: Cirrhosis, Familial
