New Products

Abgent develops 1000+ new products per year. We provide tools for path-breaking research by developing antibodies that detect a comprehensive library of novel and established targets. For established targets we seek to add antibodies that recognize new epitopes, including post-translational modifications such as phosphorylation and methylation. For new targets we consult with leading experts to accelerate development of antibodies that will propel state-of-the-art research in cellular health and disease.

Peptides

SARS Peptides

Individual peptides for SARS-CoV-2 Spike glycoprotein. In order to study the specificity of cellular immune responses against SARS CoV-2 and potential immunity caused by other human Corona Viruses, Abcepta provides Spike peptide individually, as pools and in plate. These peptides can be used for antigen specific T-cell stimulation in T-cell assays or T-cell expansion.

Cell/Tissues/Lysates

Abcepta's portfolio of cell lines, tissues and lysates are drawn from a range of species and immortalized cell lines. All our cell lines and lysates are validated in key applications.

These tissue lysates can be used in applications such as SDS-PAGE and Western blotting. Whole cell lysates can be used as positive controls for applications such as ELISAs, immunoprecipitation (IP) and Western blotting. Obtaining high-quality whole cell lysates can be tedious as well as time consuming. Abcepta offers a comprehensive portfolio of whole cell lysates for research use. Browse our catalog to find the right whole cell lysate for your experiment.

Isotype	Rabbit IgG
Host	Rabbit
Calculated MW	62378 Da

Dilution	WB 1:5000~1:10000 IHC 1:50~1:200 ICC/IF 1:50~1:200
Purification	Affinity-chromatography
Immunogen	A synthesized peptide derived from human Cytokeratin 5
Description	The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the keratin gene family. The type II cytokeratins consist of basic or neutral proteins which are arranged in pairs of heterotypic keratin chains coexpressed during differentiation of simple and stratified epithelial tissues. This type II cytokeratin is specifically expressed in the basal layer of the epidermis with family member KRT14.
Storage Condition and Buffer	Rabbit IgG in phosphate buffered saline , pH 7.4, 150mM NaCl, 0.02% sodium azide and 50% glycerol. Store at +4°C short term. Store at -20°C long term. Avoid freeze / thaw cycle.

Name	KRT5
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).
Cellular Location	Cytoplasm.
Tissue Location	Expressed in corneal epithelium (at protein level) (PubMed:26758872). Expressed in keratinocytes (at protein level) (PubMed:20128788, PubMed:31302245).
