General description

Monoclonal Anti-Collagen Type VII (mouse IgG1 isotype) is derived from the hybridoma LH7.2 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice. Collagen Type VII (known also as Col7), which belongs to the collagen superfamily, is a major extracellular matrix component of the anchoring fibrils in lamina densa. COL7A1 (collagen type VII alpha 1 chain) gene codes for type VII collagen. It is located on human chromosome 3p. It is expressed by keratinocytes and fibroblasts. COL7A1 is the important component the anchoring fibrils.

Immunogen

insoluble fractions prepared from neonatal foreskin epidermal cells

Application

Monoclonal Anti-Collagen, Type VII antibody produced in mouse has been used in:
  • enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA)
  • immunoblotting
  • immunohistochemistry
  • immunofluorescence

Biochem/physiol Actions

Collagen type VII is very essential for adhesive connection between the dermis and the epidermal basement membrane zone (BMZ). Mutations in collagen type VII cause dystrophic forms of epidermolysis bullosa (including recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa (RDEB)), which manifest as skin fragility and malformed enamel.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.
