Recombinant Human Cytokeratin 8 His Tag is supplied as a recombinant protein for in vitro research use.
Background
Cytokeratin 8 (KRT8) belongs to the type II keratin family clustered on the long arm of chromosome
12. Type I and type II keratins heteropolymerize to form intermediate-sized filaments in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells. KRT8 typically dimerizes with keratin 18 to form an intermediate filament in simple single-layered epithelial cells. KRT8 has a role in retaining cellular structural integrity and also functions in signal transduction and cellular differentiation. KRT8 gene mutations cause cryptogenic cirrhosis.
