Description

Description: This monoclonal antibody 1042 recognizes human collagen Type IV. Collagens are the main components of the extracellular matrix and provide the tensile strength to tissues. There are four main types of collagen (I, II, III and IV) which contribute to the connective tissue. Expression of type IV is restricted to the basal lamina. It contains two alpha-1 and one alpha-2-like chains. Collagen Type IV is associated with disorders such as Alport syndrome and Goodpasture's syndrome. Applications Reported: This 1042 antibody has been reported for use in immunoprecipitation, western blotting, immunohistochemical staining of frozen (IHC-F) and formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (IHC-P) tissue sections. Applications Tested: This 1042 antibody has been tested by immunohistochemistry on formalin-fixed paraffin embedded (FFPE) tissue with low pH antigen retrieval. This can be used at less than or equal to 5 μg/mL. It is recommended that the antibody be carefully titrated for optimal performance in the assay of interest. Purity: Greater than 90%, as determined by SDS-PAGE. Aggregation: Less than 10%, as determined by HPLC. Filtration: 0.2 μm post-manufacturing filtered.

Collagen IV is a type of collagen protein that is a major component of the basement membrane in various tissues, including the kidneys, lungs, and skin. It forms a network-like structure that provides support and stability to the surrounding tissue. Collagen IV is composed of three alpha chains, which are encoded by the COL4A1, COL4A2, and COL4A3 genes. Mutations in these genes can lead to various genetic disorders, such as Alport syndrome and Goodpasture syndrome, which affect the kidneys and lungs, respectively.
