Description
Anti-Collagen VI/COL6A1 Antibody (CAB9738)
The Anti-Collagen VI (COL6A1) Antibody (CAB9738) is a valuable tool for researchers studying collagen VI, a key component of the extracellular matrix that plays a critical role in connective tissue structure and function. This polyclonal antibody, generated in rabbits, has high reactivity with human samples and is validated for use in applications such as immunofluorescence and immunohistochemistry.Collagen VI is essential for maintaining tissue integrity and defects in its structure or function have been associated with various genetic disorders and connective tissue diseases. The ability of this antibody to specifically target Collagen VI (COL6A1) allows researchers to visualize and quantify its expression in different tissues and cell types, providing insights into its role in health and disease.
With its versatile applications and high specificity, the Anti-Collagen VI Antibody is a valuable tool for researchers interested in studying extracellular matrix biology, tissue development, and diseases related to collagen VI dysfunction. Its use can contribute to a better understanding of the mechanisms underlying these conditions and aid in the development of potential therapeutic interventions.

UniProt Protein Function: | COL6A1: Collagen VI acts as a cell-binding protein. Defects in COL6A1 are a cause of Bethlem myopathy (BM). BM is a rare autosomal dominant proximal myopathy characterized by early childhood onset (complete penetrance by the age of 5) and joint contractures most frequently affecting the elbows and ankles. Defects in COL6A1 are a cause of Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (UCMD); also known as Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy. UCMD is an autosomal recessive congenital myopathy characterized by muscle weakness and multiple joint contractures, generally noted at birth or early infancy. The clinical course is more severe than in Bethlem myopathy. Belongs to the type VI collagen family. |

NCBI Summary: | The collagens are a superfamily of proteins that play a role in maintaining the integrity of various tissues. Collagens are extracellular matrix proteins and have a triple-helical domain as their common structural element. Collagen VI is a major structural component of microfibrils. The basic structural unit of collagen VI is a heterotrimer of the alpha1(VI), alpha2(VI), and alpha3(VI) chains. The alpha2(VI) and alpha3(VI) chains are encoded by the COL6A2 and COL6A3 genes, respectively. The protein encoded by this gene is the alpha 1 subunit of type VI collagen (alpha1(VI) chain). Mutations in the genes that code for the collagen VI subunits result in the autosomal dominant disorder, Bethlem myopathy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008] |
