Synthetic peptide directed towards the C terminal region of human KRT14
Application
Anti-KRT14 antibody produced in rabbit is suitable for western blotting at a concentration of 1.25 μg/ml.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Keratins are abundantly present structural proteins in epithelial cells. Keratins 5 and 14 are primary structural proteins of stratifying epithelia. Mutations in K14 gene or defects in K5-K14 network results in Epidermolysis bullosa simplex, a condition characterized by superficial bullous lesions on skin epithelia.
Sequence
Synthetic peptide located within the following region: DAHLSSSQFSSGSQSSRDVTSSSRQIRTKVMDVHDGKVVSTHEQVLRTKN
Physical form
Purified antibody supplied in 1x PBS buffer with 0.09% (w/v) sodium azide and 2% sucrose.

The importance of keratins and other intermediate filaments in the maintenance of tissue structure is emphasized by the discovery that many hereditary skin-blistering diseases are caused by mutations in keratin genes. Here, we describe a situation in which keratin 14
