Specifications

Product Data
Clone Name	Ks 2.398.3.1
Applications	IHC, WB
Recommend Dilution	Immunoblotting. Immunohistochemistry: 1:150.
Reactivity	Human
Host	Mouse
Clonality	Monoclonal
Immunogen	Synthetic peptide (N-terminal amino acids Nos. 2-23) of human keratin K2 (MW 65,852).
Specificity	Basic human keratin K2 (MW 65,852; formerly also designated cytokeratin 2e). Ks2.398.3.1 represents an excellent marker to study terminal epidermal differentiation. The mab is reactive with epidermal cells in uppermost suprabasal layers including scalp, foot and sole. It recognizes individual cells within epidermis of tongue and mamille (co-localization with keratin K10). It is also reactive on hyperkeratosis of diverse viral and genetic origin. The mab does not react with palate keratin K76.
Formulation	State: Supernatant State: Liquid culture supernatant contains 0.09% sodium azide
Conjugation	Unconjugated
Storage Condition	Store the antibody undiluted at 2-8°C. DO NOT FREEZE!
Gene Name	keratin 2
Database Link	Entrez Gene 3849 Human UniProt ID P35908
Background	Keratins are the major gene product of keratinocytes and form the intermediate filament cytoskeletal network in these cells. In cells of the upper spinous layer, KRT2E and KRT9 are expressed. Although the expression of KRT9 is limited to palmoplantar epidermis, KRT2E is expressed not only in this tissue but also in other regions, notably the epidermis covering the knee, thigh, and groin. It is not known whether these keratins simply replace their respective type I or type II counterpart in the preexisting KRT1/KRT10 network or dimerize with another, as yet undiscovered keratin partner.
Synonyms	KRT2, KRT2A, KRT2E, Cytokeratin-2e, CK2e, K2e, Keratin-2
