Target data

Function

Required for the formation of keratin intermediate filaments in the basal epidermis and maintenance of the skin barrier in response to mechanical stress (By similarity). Regulates the recruitment of Langerhans cells to the epidermis, potentially by modulation of the abundance of macrophage chemotactic cytokines, macrophage inflammatory cytokines and CTNND1 localization in keratinocytes (By similarity).

    Flow Cytometry - Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-Cytokeratin 5 antibody [SP27] (ab270900)

    Flow cytometry overlay histogram showing left A431 positive cells and right negative MCF7 cells stained with ab270900 (red line). The cells were fixed with 80 % methanol (5 min) and then permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 15 min. The cells were then incubated in 1x PBS containing 10 % normal goat serum to block non-specific protein-protein interaction followed by the antibody (ab270900) (1x 106 in 100µL at 1µg/mL (1/500)) for 30 min at 22°C.

    Isotype control antibody (black line) was Rabbit IgG (monoclonal) Alexa Fluor 488 ® (Alexa Fluor® 488 Rabbit IgG, monoclonal [EPR25A] - Isotype Control ab199091) used at the same concentration and conditions as the primary antibody. Unlabelled sample (blue line) was also used as a control.

    Acquisition of >5000 events were collected using a 50 mW Blue laser (488nm) and 525/40 bandpass filter.

    Immunocytochemistry - Alexa Fluor® 488 Anti-Cytokeratin 5 antibody [SP27] (ab270900)

    ab270900 staining Cytokeratin 5 in A431 cells, with negative expression in MCF7 cells The cells were fixed with 4% formaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at +4°C with ab270900 at 1/500 dilution (shown in green) and Alexa Fluor® 647 Anti-Tubulin antibody [YOL1/34] - Microtubule Marker ab195884, Rat monoclonal to Tubulin (Alexa Fluor® 647), at 1/250 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

    This product also gave a positive signal under the same testing conditions in A431 cells fixed with 100% methanol (5 min).
