Anti-COL1A2, clone alpha2CT, Azide Free Antibody

Collagens are major fibrous structural elements of cartilage, tendon, bone, skin, lung, and blood vessels. Type I collagen, a heterotrimer consisting of two α1 chains and one α2 chain, is the most abundant fibrillar collagen. It is preferentially synthesized in bone, skin, and tendon and is the most abundant protein found in these tissues.

Epitope: C-terminus

Linear peptide corresponding to the C-terminus of human Collagen type I alpha 2.

Activity Assay Analysis: A representative lot from an independent laboratory inhibits fibrin formation in vitro (Chung, H. J., et al. (2008). J Biol Chem. 283(38):25879-25886.).
