Background InformationKeratin, type I cytoskeletal 18 (KRT18), also known as Cytokeratin-18 (CK-18), are intermediate filament phosphoglycoproteins that are expressed preferentially in glandular epithelia. Cytokeratins play a critical role in differentiation and tissue specialization and function to maintain the overall structural integrity of epithelial cells. Together with actin microfilaments and microtubules, keratin filaments make up the cytoskeletons of vertebrate epithelial cells, forming alpha-helical coiled-coil dimers which associate laterally and end-to-end to form 10-nm diameter filaments.
