• General notes

  Type III collagen, [a1(III)]3 ,is an approx. 300 kDa molecule, found predominantly in skin, blood vessels, liver, placenta, tongue, and thymus. Collagen type III forms cofibrils with type I and/or V collagens in a number of tissues of mesenchymal origin, such as skin, tendon, ligaments, and bone. This collagen type is involved, directly or indirectly in several genetic diseases, including Ehlers-Danlos type IV disease.

Applications

Target

• FunctionCollagen type III occurs in most soft connective tissues along with type I collagen.
• Involvement in diseaseDefects in COL3A1 are a cause of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type 3 (EDS3) [MIM:130020]; also known as benign hypermobility syndrome. EDS is a connective tissue disorder characterized by hyperextensible skin, atrophic cutaneous scars due to tissue fragility and joint hyperlaxity. EDS3 is a form of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome characterized by marked joint hyperextensibility without skeletal deformity.
  Defects in COL3A1 are the cause of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type 4 (EDS4) [MIM:130050]. EDS is a connective tissue disorder characterized by hyperextensible skin, atrophic cutaneous scars due to tissue fragility and joint hyperlaxity. EDS4 is the most severe form of the disease. It is characterized by the joint and dermal manifestations as in other forms of the syndrome, characteristic facial features (acrogeria) in most patients, and by proneness to spontaneous rupture of bowel and large arteries. The vascular complications may affect all anatomical areas.
  Defects in COL3A1 are a cause of susceptibility to aortic aneurysm abdominal (AAA) [MIM:100070]. AAA is a common multifactorial disorder characterized by permanent dilation of the abdominal aorta, usually due to degenerative changes in the aortic wall. Histologically, AAA is characterized by signs of chronic inflammation, destructive remodeling of the extracellular matrix, and depletion of vascular smooth muscle cells.
• Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the fibrillar collagen family.
  Contains 1 fibrillar collagen NC1 domain.
  Contains 1 VWFC domain.
• Post-translational
  modificationsProline residues at the third position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-X-Y) are hydroxylated in some or all of the chains.
  O-linked glycan consists of a Glc-Gal disaccharide bound to the oxygen atom of a post-translationally added hydroxyl group.

  ab6310 at 1/600 diltuion staining preovulatory follicle and whole ovary tissue sections by Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections). Antigens were retrieved by boiling with an antigen unmasking solution for 20 min at 120ºC in an autoclave and then cooled down in water for 5 minutes. The tissue sections were formaldehyde fixed and incubated with the antibody for 1 hour. An alkaline phosphatase conjugated antibody was used as the secondary. The image shows a section of whole preovulatory follicle. Staining for collagen type III is seen in the theca interna cell layer. No staining in the granulosa cells.
