Cytokeratin 5/6 [clone D5/16B4], anti-human, mouse, rat

Description: Twenty human keratins are divided into acidic (pI <5.7) and basic (pI >6.0) subfamilies. Members of the acidic and basic subfamilies are found together in pairs. The composition of keratin pairs varies with theepithelial cell type, stage of differentiation, cellular growth environment, and disease state. Many studies have shown the usefulness of keratins as markers in cancer research and tumor identification.Localization: cytoplasmDilution: 25-200Positive Control: mesothelioma, prostateHIER: EDTA pH8.0Status: RUO
