Cytokeratin 20 (KRT20) (Colorectal Epithelial Marker) (KRT20/1992) , 0.2mg / mL

This MAb recognizes an intermediate filament protein of 46 kDa , identified as cytokeratin 20 (KRT20). KRT is abundantly expressed in goblet cells and enterocytes of the gastrointestinal tract. It is a useful marker of pancreatic and colorectal cancer. KRT20 is expressed under normal , hyperplastic and neoplastic conditions. It has been detected in adenocarcinomas of the colon , stomach and biliary tract. Breast carcinomas are generally non-reactive.Primary antibodies are available purified , or with a selection of fluorescent CF® Dyes and other labels. CF® Dyes offer exceptional brightness and photostability. Note: Conjugates of blue fluorescent dyes like CF®405S and CF®405M are not recommended for detecting low abundance targets , because blue dyes have lower fluorescence and can give higher non-specific background than other dye colors.
