Specificity

Some class-specific anti-collagens may be specific for three-dimensional epitopes which may result in diminished reactivity with denatured collagen or formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissues. This antibody reacts with most mammalian Collagen III alpha 1/COL3A1 and has expected cross-reactivity with Type I and negligible cross reactivity with Type II, IV, V or VI collagens. Non-specific cross-reaction of anti-collagen antibodies with other human serum proteins or non-collagen extracellular matrix proteins has not been tested.

Description

This antibody has been prepared by immunoaffinity chromatography using immobilized antigens followed by extensive cross-adsorption against other collagens, human serum proteins and non-collagen extracellular matrix proteins to remove any unwanted specificities. Some class-specific anti-collagens may be specific for three-dimensional epitopes which may result in diminished reactivity with denatured collagen or formalin-fixed, paraffin embedded tissues.

Store vial at 4C prior to opening. This product is stable at 4C as an undiluted liquid. Dilute only prior to immediate use. For extended storage, mix with an equal volume of glycerol, aliquot contents and freeze at -20C or below. Avoid cycles of freezing and thawing.

Background: Collagen III alpha 1/COL3A1

Collagen III alpha 1, also referred to as collagen type III alpha 1 or COL3A1 for short, was first described in 1971 and is a member of the collagen superfamily and encoded COL3A1 gene (1, 2). In general, collagen III is an extracellular matrix protein that is synthesized as a preprocollagen followed by cleaving of the signal peptide to form the procollagen (1). The human COL3A1 gene is located on chromosome 2q32.2 and collagen III is synthesized as a homotrimer consisting of three identical alpha procollagen chains which are stabilized by disulfide bonds (1,2,3). Each alpha chain is 1466 amino acids (aa) in length with a theoretical molecular weight of 139 kDa for a single alpha chain (1). Structurally, each alpha chain is a left-handed helix which then join together to form a right-handed triple helix (1,2). C-terminal and N-terminal proteinases remove the globular ends of the procollagen to form the type III collagen (1).

Collagen III is a fibrillar collagen that constitutes 5-20% of all collagen in the body (1). It provides structural integrity and is found in many hallow organs and soft connective tissue including the vascular system, skin, lung, uterus, and intestine (1,2). Additionally, collagen III has be found to be associated with type I collagen in the same fibrils (1). Collagen III interacts with signaling integrins to carry out other key functions including cell adhesion, proliferation, and differentiation (1).

Mutations in the COL3A1 gene has been associated with a variety of human diseases, the most well-known being a group of connective tissue disorders termed Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (1,2,4). Vascular Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome is a specific subtype that is considered the most severe and although the clinical manifestations vary, symptoms include thin skin and fragile blood vessels and can often result in both lung and heart complications (1,4). COL3A1 is also associated with glomerulopathies, or diseases of the glomeruli, which are characterized by an abundance of extracellular matrix (3). Collagenofibrotic glomerulopathy is one specific rare renal disease that is characterized by excessive levels of collagen III (3).

FAQs for Collagen III alpha 1/COL3A1 Antibody - BSA Free

Showing  1 - 3 of 3 FAQs Showing All

  • Q: I am wondering if you could please confirm for me whether this product Collagen III antibody - catalogue # NB600-594 is able to be used under denaturing conditions with Western blots? Or whether it only binds to the collagen in its natural (non-denatured)

    A: The Western blot image is not generated from native collagen - reducing conditions were used to obtain the image. The intact native molecule is too large to be run on standard 4-20% gels so the sample was run under reducing conditions. The image shows the sub-unit strand(s), not the intact collagen that consists of 3 subunit strands. These are not considered optimal or specific binding conditions for the anti-collagen antibodies, however the decision was made to run and post this on the website as an example.

  • Q: May I know if you carry the un-conjugated version of NB120-6580 (biotinylated anti-Collagen Type iII)?

    A: I would recommend this catalog number for an unconjugated anti-Collagen Type III antibody: NB600-594.

  • Q: What is the dilution factor for IHC for starting? Because the range of dilution factor on the datasheet is so broad, I am confused which dilution factor is suitable for starting.

    A: I can recommend the following dilution to start. Keep in mind that these will all vary greatly by sample type, so these are just suggestions. You may need to use more or less antibody. For catalog number NB600-594, the dilution range is 1:50-1:200.
