Western Blotting (WB), Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections) (IHC (p))
Purification
This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification.
Immunogen
This KRT6B antibody is generated from rabbits immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 207-236 amino acids from the Central region of human KRT6B.
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the keratin gene family. The type II cytokeratins consist of basic or neutral proteins which are arranged in pairs of heterotypic keratin chains coexpressed during differentiation of simple and stratified epithelial tissues. As many as six of this type II cytokeratin (KRT6) have been identified, the multiplicity of the genes is attributed to successive gene duplication events. The genes are expressed with family members KRT16 and/or KRT17 in the filiform papillae of the tongue, the stratified epithelial lining of oral mucosa and esophagus, the outer root sheath of hair follicles, and the glandular epithelia. Mutations in these genes have been associated with pachyonychia congenita. The type II cytokeratins are clustered in a region of chromosome 12q12-q13. [provided by RefSeq].
