Target description

Collagen alpha-1(VII) chain (UniProt: Q02388; also known as Long-chain collagen, LC collagen) is encoded by the COL7A1 gene (Gene ID: 1294) in human. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body that is predominantly synthesized by fibroblasts. However, epithelial cells may also synthesize small amounts of collagen. The collagen super family includes over 20 different types of collagens with at least 38 distinct polypeptide chains. Collagen type VII is a homotrimeric protein that is primarily synthesized by keratinocytes and skin fibroblasts. It is composed of three identical alpha chains and its distribution is restricted to stratified squamous epithelial basement membrane. It contributes to epithelial basement membrane organization and adherence by interacting with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Type VII collagen contains a non-collagenous domain 1 (NC1), a central collagenous domain, and a non-collagenous domain 2 (NC2) that catalyze the anchoring fibril assembly. Mutations in COL7A1 gene have been linked to epidermolysis bullosa dystrophica, a blistering skin disease characterized by tissue separation that occurs below the dermal-epidermal basement membrane at the level of the anchoring fibrils. This ZooMAb^® recombinant monoclonal antibody, generated by our propriety technology, offers significantly enhanced specificity, affinity, reproducibility, and stability over conventional monoclonals.

Physical form

Purified recombinant rabbit monoclonal antibody IgG, lyophilized in PBS, 5% Trehalose, normal appearance a coarse or translucent resin. The PBS/trehalose components in the ZooMAb formulation can have the appearance of a semi-solid (bead like gel) after lyophilization. This is a normal phenomenon. Please follow the recommended reconstitution procedure in the data sheet to dissolve the semi-solid, bead-like, gel-appearing material. The resulting antibody solution is completely stable and functional as proven by full functional testing. Contains no biocide or preservatives, such as azide, or any animal by-products. Larger pack sizes provided as multiples of 25 μL.

Reconstitution

300 μg/mL after reconstitution at 25 μL per vial. Please refer to guidance on suggested starting dilutions and/or titers per application and sample type.

Storage and Stability

Recommend storage of lyophilized product at 2-8°C; Before reconstitution, micro-centrifuge vials briefly to spin down material to bottom of the vial; Reconstitute each vial by adding 25 μL of filtered lab grade water or PBS; Reconstituted antibodies can be stored at 2-8°C, or -20°C for long term storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaws.
