Collagens comprise a large family of insoluble extracellular glycoproteins that are essential components of connective tissues such as tendons, ligaments, cartilage, bone and skin. The mature polypeptides are secreted as coiled, left-handed helices that subsequently assemble into rope-like collagen fibers. Collagen I is a fibril-forming collagen that requires N- and C- terminal processing. Collagen IV is a network forming collagen whose C-terminus forms dimers and N-terminus forms tetramers.

Collagen IV from human and bovine placenta (Uniprot: P02462)
Reactivity Notes
This antibody reacts with most mammalian Collagen IV and has negligible cross-reactivity with Type I, II, III, V or VI collagens. Non-specific cross-reaction of anti-collagen antibodies with other human serum proteins or non-collagen extracellular matrix proteins is negligible.
Rat reactivity reported in scientific literature (PMID: 16774905)
Feline reactivity reported in scientific literature (PMID: 33091431).

Localization
Secreted and Cell surface (Potential).
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 IV and has negligible cross-reactivity with Type I, II, III, V or VI collagens. Non-specific cross-reaction of anti-collagen antibodies with other human serum proteins or non-collagen extracellular matrix proteins is negligible.
Clonality

Isotype
IgG
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.

Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: Collagen IV Antibody [NB120-6586] - Collagen IV antibody at 1:400, 45 min RT showed strong staining in FFPE sections of human kidney (left) with strong red staining observed in glomeruli and liver (right) with strong staining in sinusoids. Staining for both tissues was consistent with a basement membrane distribution. Slides were steamed in 0.01 M sodium citrate buffer, pH 6.0 at 100C for 20 minutes for antigen retrieval.Immunohistochemistry-Paraffin: Collagen IV Antibody [NB120-6586]
