Anti Cytokeratin 18/19 Antibody (PrecisionAb™ Monoclonal Antibody) gallery image 1
Western blot analysis of whole cell lysates probed with cytokeratin 18/19 antibody (VMA00011) followed by detection with HRP conjugated Goat anti Human IgG F(ab')2 (1/2500, STAR126P) and visualized on the ChemiDoc MP with 2 second exposure. Arrow points to cytokeratin 18/19 (molecular weight 48, 44 kDa).

Human anti Cytokeratin 18/19

Cytokeratin 18/19 antibody recognizes the keratin, type I cytoskeletal 18 , also known as cell proliferation-inducing gene 46, protein cytokeratin-18, CK-18, keratin-18 or K18. The antibody has been extensively validated for western blotting using whole cell lysates.

Human anti Human cytokeratin 18/19 antibody recognizes human cytokeratin 18, a amino acid type I intermediate filament protein expressed by epithelial cells. The intermediate filaments are expressed as heterodimers in epithelial tissues. Cytokeratin 18 (CK18) is often co-expressed with cytokeratin 8 (CK8). The CK18/CK8 heterodimer is the major cytokeratin pair found in simple epithelia such as that found in the liver, intestine and breast ducts. CK18 plays an important role in maintaining epithelial cell integrity.

This clone has also been demonstrated to cross-react with cytokeratin 19. Human anti Human cytokeratin 18/19 antibody recognizes cytokeratin 18 as a band of ~48 kDa and cytokeratin 19 as a band of ~44 kDa in western blotting under reducing conditions.

Instructions For Use
Please refer to the PrecisionAb western blotting protocol. For additional information on secondary antibody dilution and exposure time see product web page.

Positive Control Lysate

Lysate Composition
400μg HeLa lysate lyophilized in RIPA buffer.
Lysate Reconstitution
- If using DDT reconstitute the lyophilized lysate with 190μl DI H2O, add 200μl 2x Laemmli Sample Buffer and 10μl 2M DTT.
