MyBioSource.com's Rabbit Anti-Pan Cytokeratin/P-CK Antibody is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: Immunoprecipitation, and Western Blot. The Rabbit Anti-Pan Cytokeratin/P-CK Antibody was generated using Keratin 9, and KRT9 as the antigen and it reacts with Human.
Description
Cytokeratins are fibrous intermediate-filament protein polymers present in almost all animal cells. There are 20 known cytokeratins, classified according to their molecular weight and pH as type I or acidic (cytokeratins 9-20) and type II or neutral-basic (cytokeratins 1-8). Cytokeratins have been identified as potential markers for the detection of circulating cancer cells by flow cytometry and RT-PCR. The pan-cytokeratin antibody has been mainly exploited in prognostic studies of circulating and disseminated epithelial tumor cells, particularly in assessing sentinel lymph node biopsies in breast cancer
