Specifications
Target Information
Rat Cytokeratin 5 is a type II intermediate filament protein predominantly expressed in basal epithelial cells. It forms heteropolymers with type I cytokeratins, providing structural support and mechanical stability to epithelial tissues. Cytokeratin 5 is essential for maintaining the integrity of stratified epithelia, such as the epidermis and oral mucosa. Its expression is often used as a marker for basal cells and is involved in processes like wound healing and tissue regeneration. As a key component of the cytoskeleton, cytokeratin 5 is an important target for studying epithelial cell biology and related pathological conditions.
