4. Block – Block with peroxidase solution for 5 minutes at RT.
5. Primary Ab – Dilute antibodies 1:100 – 1:200 and incubate for 10 - 30 minutes at RT.
6. Secondary Ab - Incubate for 20 - 30 minutes at RT.
7. Substrate - Incubate DAB or Fast Red for 5 - 10 minutes at RT.
8. Counterstain - Counterstain with hematoxylin for 30 seconds to 5 minutes, rinse with distilled water and blueing solution for 30 seconds.
9. Dehydrate and apply coverslip.
(Each researcher should optimize the protocol for their experimental model system.)

NCBI Summary for KRT18

KRT18 encodes the type I intermediate filament chain keratin 18. Keratin 18, together with its filament partner keratin 8, are perhaps the most commonly found members of the intermediate filament gene family. They are expressed in single layer epithelial tissues of the body. Mutations in this gene have been linked to cryptogenic cirrhosis. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
