Anti-Collagen Type III Antibody, clone IE7-D7

产品说明

一般描述

Type III collagen (also known as COL3A1), which adds structure and strength to connective tissues, is found in many places in the body, especially skin, lung, intestinal walls, and the walls of blood vessels. Collagen type III is initially produced as pro-collagen, a protein consisting of three pro-alpha1(III) chains that form the triple-stranded, rope-like molecule. After being synthesized, the pro-collagen molecule is modified by the cell. Enzymes modify the amino acids lysine and proline in the protein strands by adding chemical groups that are necessary for the strands to form a stable molecule and then later to crosslink to other molecules outside the cell. Other enzymes add sugars to the protein. The type III pro-collagen molecules are released from the cell and are processed by enzymes that clip small segments off either end of the molecules to form mature collagen. The mature collagen molecules assemble into fibrils. Cross-linking between molecules produces a very stable fibril, contributing to collagen′s tissue strengthening function.

特异性

This antibody detects collagen type III. There is no evidence for cross reactivity with Collagen Types I, V and VI or connective tissue proteins (Elastin, Fibronectin and Laminin) at suggested working concentrations.

免疫原

Human type III collagen (Werkmeister, J.A., et al. 1990).
Epitope: N-terminus

应用

Research Category
Cell Structure
ELISA Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody was used in ELISA (Werkmeister, J.A., et al., 1991).

Western Blot Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody was used to detect collagen type III in western blot under non-reduced conditions (Werkmeister J.A., et al., 1988; Ramshaw, J.S., et al., 1988).
Some Collagen samples can be contaminated with other Collagen Types. When purified Collagen is used in an application the purity of the Collagen sample should be verified by SDS-page to minimize the risk of false positives.

Immunohistochemistry Analysis: A previous lot of this antibody was used to detect collagen type III in immunohistochemistry (Werkmeister J.A., et al., 1989; Werkmeister J.A., et al., 1989; Werkmeister J.A., et al., 1988).
