The mouse monoclonal antibody A53-B/A2 recognizes the rod domain of cytokeratin 19 (40 kDa), an intracellular antigen constituting intermmediate cytoskeleton filaments. Cytokeratin 19 is not expressed in hepatocytes, it is often co-expressed with cytokeratin 7.

Keratin 19,Cytokeratins are a subfamily of intermediate filaments and 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.,K19, CK19, CYK19, KRT19, K1CS
