Target Details for Cytokeratin 18

Target: Cytokeratin 18 (KRT18) (Keratin 18 (KRT18))

Alternative Name: Cytokeratin 18 (KRT18 Products)

Background: Keratin 18,Cytokeratins are a subfamily of intermediate filaments and are characterized by remarkable biochemical diversity. They are represented in epithelial tissues by at least 20 different polypeptides, molecular weight between 40 kDa and 68 kDa. The individual cytokeratin polypeptides are designated 1 to 20 and divided into the type I (acidic cytokeratins 9-20) and type II (basic to neutral cytokeratins 1-8) families. Cytokeratin 18 belongs to type I family (acidic cytokeratins).,K18, CK18, CYK18, KRT18
