Cytokeratin Type 1 Antibody | Novus Biologicals antibody product information
request information:
Catalog Code:NB120-3117
Product Name:Cytokeratin Type 1 Antibody
Product Description:Mouse Monoclonal anti-Cytokeratin Type 1 (AE1)
Clone:AE1
Clonality:Monoclonal
ListPrice:295
Immunogen:Human epidermal keratin.
Specificity:This antibody reacts with MCF-7, RT 112 and A 431 cultured cell lines.
Cross Reactivity:Cross-reacts with Human, Rabbit, Rat, Mouse, Cow, Chicken and Monkey. Not yet tested in other species.
Packaging:0.5 ml protein G purified Mouse ascites.
Uses:For staining of formalin-fixed tissues, digest sections with trypsin at 1mg/ml PBS, 10 min at 37 degrees C or Protease XXV at 1mg/ml PBS for 5minutes at 37 degrees C. This antibody is an excellent marker for distinguishing carcinomas from non-epithelial tumours.
Localization:Cytoplasmic.
Background:Twenty human keratins are resolved with two-dimensional gel electrophoresis into acidic (pI <5.7) and basic (pI >6.0) subfamilies. The acidic keratins have molecular weights of 56.5, 55, 51, 50, 50', 48, 46, 45, and 40kDa. The basic keratins have molecular weights of 65 - 67, 64, 59, 58, 56 and 52kDa. Members of acidic and basic subfamilies are found together in pairs. The composition of keratin pairs varies with cell type, differentiation status and environment. Many studies have shown the usefulness of keratins as markers in cancer research and tumor diagnosis.
Storage:Store at 4C.  Do not freeze.
