Monoclonal Anti-Cytokeratin Peptide 14 antibody produced in mouse

Monoclonal Anti-Cytokeratin Peptide 14 (mouse IgM isotype) is derived from the hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from an immunized mouse. Keratin 14 (KRT14) is expressed in keratinocytes and localized to the basal epidermal layer. The gene is mapped to human chromosome 17q21 and encodes an intermediate filament.

human callus keratins.

Monoclonal Anti-Cytokeratin Peptide 14 antibody produced in mouse has been used in indirect immunofluorescence or immunoperoxidase techniques.

Keratin 14 (KRT14) is associated with maintaining cellular stability. Mutation in the KRT14 gene leads to epidermolysis bullosa simplex, a genetic disorder. It is known to promote angiogenesis, cell migration and proliferation in cancer cells.

The antibody reacts with myoepithelial cells in various organs (parotid, submandibular, mammary, prostate, and sweat glands) as well as with the basal layer of certain squamous epithelium (exocervical, laryngeal epithelium).
