Gene Information

human ... COL12A1(1303)

General description

COL12A1 (collagen type XII α1) gene is localized to human chromosome 6q13. It is the α chain of type XII collagen, which in turn, belongs to the fibril-associated collagens with interrupted triple helices (FACIT) family. Collagen type XII consists of two short collagenous triple-helical domains and three non-triple-helical domains.

Immunogen

Collagen alpha-1(XII) chain precursor recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry.

The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.

Biochem/physiol Actions

COL12A1 (collagen type XII α1) is a candidate gene lying in the recurrent 6q13 breakpoint, which is linked with chondromyxoid fibroma. It is also a candidate gene for the benign bone tumor subungual exostosis. Mutations in this gene are linked with extracellular matrix (ECM)-related myopathies. Females with AA genotype of COL12A1 are susceptible to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.
