Gene Information

human ... COL2A1(1280)

General description

Anti-Collagen II Antibody detects endogenous levels of total Collagen II protein.
Collagen type II α 1 chain (COL2A1) gene is mapped to human chromosome 12q13.11–q13.12. COL2A1 belongs to collagen superfamily. The encoded protein is characterized with three identical α chains forming homotrimers. Collagen II is the major component of cartilage.

Immunogen

The antiserum was produced against synthesized peptide derived from human Collagen II.

Immunogen Range: 101-150

Application

Anti-Collagen II, N-Terminal antibody produced in rabbit has been used for:
  • Western blotting
  • Immunofluorescence
  • Immunohistological analyses
Applications in which this antibody has been used successfully, and the associated peer-reviewed papers, are given below.
Immunohistochemistry (2 papers)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Mutation of collagen type II α 1 chain (COL2A1), leads to a variety of clinical manifestations such as skeletal dysplasia, short stature, and sensorial defects, collectively known as type II collagenopathies. Function of COL2A1 in articular cartilage is to form highly organized fibers, which are essential for the mechanical properties of the tissue.

Surgery-obtained synovium specimens (SSSs) can provide a source of synovial mesenchymal stem cells (SMSCs) for experimental studies. However, these specimens contain diverse tissues, including the intima and subintima; therefore, these SMSCs are not entirely derived from the intima and their cell source
