Product description

KRT18 is a structural component of intermediate filaments in simple epithelial cells. KRT18 forms intermediate filaments by heterodimerizing with the type II keratin KRT8, providing mechanical stability and resilience to epithelial cells. KRT18 is involved in ARHGEF40-mediated actin stress fiber formation and tensional force-induced stress fiber formation and reinforcement.

Research target context

KRT18keratin 18

View target guide

Keratin 18 (KRT18), also known as cytokeratin 18, CK-18 and K18, is a type I cytoskeletal intermediate-filament protein. This ABMIUM target record connects NCBI Gene 3875 and UniProtKB P05783 to catalogue-backed research products.

Biological function: Keratin 18 (KRT18/CK-18) is a type I intermediate-filament protein expressed prominently in simple epithelial cells. It forms heteropolymeric filaments, notably with keratin 8, that contribute to cytoskeletal organisation, mechanical stability and epithelial-cell resilience.
