A recombinant fragment of human KRT20 protein (within amino acids 196-323) was used as the immunogen for the Cytokeratin 20 antibody.
This MAb recognizes an intermediate filament protein of 46kDa, identified as cytokeratin 20 (KRT20). KRT20 is abundantly expressed in goblet cells and enterocytes of the gastrointestinal tract. It is a useful marker of pancreatic and colorectal cancer. K
