Overview
Product Description | Mouse Monoclonal antibody [5B2.5] recognizes Collagen II |
---|---|
Tested Reactivity | Hu, Ms, Chk, Pig, Rb |
Tested Application | ICC/IF, IHC-Fr, IHC-P, WB |
Specificity | This antibody is highly specific to type II collagen and shows no cross-reaction with types I, III, IV, V, VI, IX, X, or XI. In Western blotting, this antibody reacts with the TCA fragment of lathyritic type II collagen after digestion with mammalian collagenase. It does not react with pepsin-digested type II collagen. |

Gene Symbol | COL2A1 |
Gene Full Name | collagen, type II, alpha 1 |
Background | The alpha-1 chain of type II collagen, a fibrillar collagen found in cartilage and the vitreous humor of the eye. Mutations in this gene are associated with achondrogenesis, chondrodysplasia, early onset familial osteoarthritis, SED congenita, Langer-Saldino achondrogenesis, Kniest dysplasia, Stickler syndrome type I, and spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia Strudwick type. In addition, defects in processing chondrocalcin, a calcium binding protein that is the C-propeptide of this collagen molecule, are also associated with chondrodysplasia. There are two transcripts identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
Function | Type II collagen is specific for cartilaginous tissues. It is essential for the normal embryonic development of the skeleton, for linear growth and for the ability of cartilage to resist compressive forces. [provided by Uniprot] |
Cellular Localization | Secreted |
Research Area | Developmental Biology antibody; Signaling Transduction antibody |
Calculated MW | 142 kDa |
PTM | Probably 3-hydroxylated on prolines by LEPREL1 (By similarity). Proline residues at the third position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-X-P) are hydroxylated in some or all of the chains. Proline residues at the second position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-P-X) are hydroxylated in some of the chains. The N-telopeptide is covalently linked to the helical COL2 region of alpha 1(IX), alpha 2(IX) and alpha 3(IX) chain. The C-telopeptide is covalently linked to an another site in the helical region of alpha 3(IX) COL2. |
