Monoclonal Anti-KRT5 antibody produced in mouse

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. This type II cytokeratin is specifically expressed in the basal layer of the epidermis with family member KRT14. Mutations in these genes have been associated with a complex of diseases termed epidermolysis bullosa simplex. The type II cytokeratins are clustered in a region of chromosome 12q12-q13. (provided by RefSeq) Keratin 5 (KRT5) is expressed in the basal layer of the epidermis. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 12q13.13.

KRT5 (AAH24292, 1 a.a. ~ 590 a.a) full-length recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Keratin 5 (KRT5) protects epithelial cells from mechanical and non-mechanical stress. Mutation in the gene encoding this protein has been linked to epidermolysis bullosa simplex and Dowling-Degos disease.
