Notes

ab317799 is the carrier-free version of Anti-Collagen I antibody [EPR7785] – Mouse IgG1 (Chimeric) ab317789.

This mouse monoclonal chimeric antibody has been engineered from a RabMAb parent antibody (Anti-Collagen I antibody [EPR7785] ab138492). By necessity, some rabbit sequence is retained as part of the variable domain. When multiplexing with other rabbit-derived antibodies, using cross absorbed Fc-reactive secondary antibodies are recommended.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Activity summary

Collagen type I also called collagen I is a structural protein expressed mainly in connective tissues such as skin tendon bone and ligaments. It serves as an important component in providing mechanical strength and integrity to these tissues. Collagen I is a fibrillar collagen known for its triple-helix structure composed of two alpha-1 chains and one alpha-2 chain and has a molecular mass of approximately 300 kDa. Researchers often employ collagen western blot and collagen ELISA techniques for its detection. Collagen suppliers offer various collagen antibodies used in these assays to study its distribution and function.

Biological function summary

Collagen type I plays a central role in maintaining the extracellular matrix and supporting cellular environments. It interacts with other matrix proteins and cells forming complexes that help in tissue development and repair. Type I collagen is especially important in bone matrix working alongside minerals like hydroxyapatite to provide rigidity and support. Anti-collagen antibodies aid in studying its biological functions and interactions which are critical to understanding tissue dynamics.

Pathways

Collagen type I interacts with multiple signaling cascades involved in tissue remodeling and repair. It is a significant player in the TGF-β pathway which regulates fibrosis and wound healing processes. In these pathways proteins such as fibronectin and integrins work in concert with collagen type I to orchestrate cellular responses to damage. Researchers often examine its role in these pathways to uncover therapeutic possibilities for disease interventions.

Associated diseases and disorders

Collagen type I has strong connections to conditions like osteogenesis imperfecta and fibrosis. Mutations or irregularities in collagen I production can lead to osteogenesis imperfecta a genetic disorder characterized by brittle bones. In fibrosis excessive collagen deposition disrupts normal tissue architecture contributing to organ dysfunction. In both conditions type I collagen interacts with other proteins like matrix metalloproteinases which modulate its breakdown and remodeling highlighting its importance in disease pathology.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-Collagen I antibody [EPR7785] – Mouse IgG1 (Chimeric) – BSA and Azide Free (ab317799)

    Immunofluorescence staining of Collagen alpha-1(I) chain in sections of formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded human colon*.

    Performed on a Leica BOND. The section was pre-treated using heat mediated antigen retrieval with sodium citrate (pH6.0) for 20 minutes. The section was then incubated at room temperature for 1 hour with ab317799 at 1/500 dilution, and then incubated for 1 hour with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 647) preadsorbed ab150119 Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 647) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue). The section was then mounted using Dako Fluorescence Mounting Medium®.

    Image was taken with a confocal microscope (Leica-Microsystems, TCS SP8).

    For other IHC staining systems (automated and non-automated), customers should optimize variable parameters such as antigen retrieval conditions, antibody concentrations and incubation times.

    ab317799 staining Collagen alpha-1(I) chain in U2OS-COL1A1 cells. The cells were fixed with 100% methanol (5 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at 4°C with ab317799 at 1µg/ml and Alexa Fluor® 594 Anti-alpha Tubulin antibody [EP1332Y] - Microtubule Marker ab202272, Alexa Fluor® 594 Rabbit monoclonal [EP1332Y] to alpha Tubulin - Microtubule Marker (shown in pseudocolour magenta). Cells were then incubated with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150117, Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).

    Also suitable in cells fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min).

    Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.
