Anti-human cytokeratin no. 8 (clone M20)
"Binding of M20 monoclonal antibodies to human cytokeratin no. 8"
Hybridoma Clone Antibody Isotype Cat. No.
M20-2B Mouse IgG2b ARA22
Source A mouse was immunized with cytokeratin isolated from a human breast carcinoma cell line (MCF-7).
Antibody producing cells were isolated after fusing the spleen cells of this mouse with murine myeloma
cells by selecting the cells that produced antibodies capable of staining human simple epithelia in
thin sections.
Specification:
The antibody stains almost all epithelial cells. In immunoblotting experiments the antibody was shown to
recognize cytokeratin no. 8 (52 kDa).
