Description: It recognizes an intermediate filament protein (IFP) of 55kDa, which is identified as cytokeratin 7. This mAb is highly specific to cytokeratin 7 and shows no cross-reaction with other IFPs. Cytokeratin 7 is a basic cytokeratin, which is found in most glandular and transitional epithelia but not in the stratified squamous epithelia. Keratin 7 is expressed in the epithelial cells of ovary, lung, and breast but not of colon, prostate, or gastrointestinal tract. This mAb is highly useful in distinguishing ovarian carcinomas (keratin 7+) from colon carcinomas (keratin 7-).

Immunogen: OTN 11 cells (ovarian carcinoma cell line) were used as the immunogen for the Keratin 7 antibody.

Storage: Store the Keratin 7 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).
