Product Details
Cytokeratin 18 (CK18)
Cytokeratins are intermediate filament keratins found in the intracytoplasmic cytoskeleton of epithelial tissue There are two types of Cytokeratins: the low weight, acidic type I cytokeratins and the high weight, basic or neutral type II. Cytokeratins are usually found in pairs comprising a type I Cytokeratin and a type II cytokeratin. The high molecular weight cytokeratins, which are the basic or neutral cytokeratins, comprise subtypes CK1, CK2, CK3, CK4, CK5, CK6, CK7, CK8 and CK9. The low molecular weight cytokeratins, which are the acidic cytokeratins, comprise subtypes CK10, CK12, CK 13, CK14, CK16, CK17, CK18, CK19 and CK20.GI tract contain both CK 8 and CK18 but not CK 14. Cytokeratin is expressed in GI and respiratory tract, mesothelial cells, endocrine and exocrine tissues. Varieties of simple epithelia including glandular but not stratified squamous epithelia are detected by this antibody.

UniProt Summary: Required for the formation of KRT8/KRT18 filaments that are involved in ARHGEF40-mediated actin stress fiber formation and tensional force-induced stress fiber formation and reinforcement. Also acts downstream of ROCK kinase activation as part of a positive feedback mechanism in response to cellular mechanical stress loading. Organization and orientation of KRT18 filaments are responsible for the properly elongated morphology of epithelial tubules. Involved in the uptake of thrombin-antithrombin complexes by hepatic cells. When phosphorylated, plays a role in filament reorganization. Involved in the delivery of mutated CFTR to the plasma membrane. Together with KRT8, is involved in interleukin-6 (IL-6)-mediated barrier protection.
