Sedimentation Studies of Epidermal Keratins. Keratin A and Keratin B
نویسنده
چکیده
Electrophoretically homogeneous keratin A and keratin B were studied in the ultracentrifuge. Both preparations revealed two fractions: one which sedimented rapidly and another which sedimented slowly. This indicated that both preparations are heterogeneous with respect to particle size.

Immunolocalization of keratin polypeptides in human epidermis using monoclonal antibodies
Three monoclonal antibodies (AE1, AE2, and AE3) were prepared against human epidermal keratins and used to study keratin expression during normal epidermal differentiation. Immunofluorescence staining data suggested that the antibodies were specific for keratin-type intermediate filaments. The reactivity of these antibodies to individual human epidermal keratin polypeptides (65-67, 58, 56, and ...
متن کاملClassification of epidermal keratins according to their immunoreactivity, isoelectric point, and mode of expression
Human epidermal keratinocytes express under various growth conditions a total of at least nine keratins that can be divided into two subfamilies. Subfamily A comprises 40-, 46-, 48-, 50-/50'-, and 56.5-kilodalton (kd) keratins which are relatively acidic (pI less than 5.5) and, with the exception of 46-kd keratin, are recognized by AE1 monoclonal antibody. Subfamily B comprises 52-, 56-, 58-, a...

متن کاملCorrelation of specific keratins with different types of epithelial differentiation: monoclonal antibody studies.
We have prepared three monoclonal antibodies against human epidermal keratins. These antibodies were highly specific for keratins and, in combination, recognized all major epidermal keratins of several mammalian species. We have used these antibodies to study the tissue distribution of epidermis-related keratins. In various mammalian epithelia, the antibodies recognized seven classes of keratin...
متن کاملThe complete cDNA and deduced amino acid sequence of a type II mouse epidermal keratin of 60,000 Da: analysis of sequence differences between type I and type II keratins.
We present the complete nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequences of a mouse epidermal keratin subunit of 60,000 Da. The keratin possesses a central alpha-helical domain of four tracts (termed 1A, 1B, 2A, and 2B) that can form coiled-coils, interspersed by short linker sequences, and has non-alpha-helical terminal domains. This pattern of secondary structure is emerging as common to all inter...
