Background	Keratins (cytokeratins) are intermediate filament proteins that are mainly expressed in epithelial cells. Keratin heterodimers composed of an acidic keratin (or type I keratin, keratins 9 to 23) and a basic keratin (or type II keratin, keratins 1 to 8) assemble to form filaments. Keratin isoforms demonstrate tissue and differentiation-specific profiles that make them useful as research biomarkers. Research studies have shown that mutations in keratin genes are associated with skin disorders, liver and pancreatic diseases, and inflammatory intestinal diseases.
Synonyms	Cell proliferation-inducing gene 46 protein; CK-18; CYK18; Cytokeratin-18; K18; Keratin, type I cytoskeletal 18; Keratin-18; KRT18; PIG46
Note	For research use only, not for use in diagnostic procedure.
