Activity summary

Collagen VI also known as Collagen 6 is a type of collagen that plays an important role in the extracellular matrix. It consists of three different chains: α1(VI) α2(VI) and α3(VI) with a combined mass of approximately 140 kDa. This collagen type strongly associates with several tissues notably in skeletal muscle skin and the walls of blood vessels. Scientists often study collagen VI with specific collagen antibodies to understand its unique structural properties and its end which binds to other matrix components.

Biological function summary

Collagen VI contributes to structural integrity and cellular scaffolding within tissues. This protein is integral to the formation of microfibrillar networks part of a larger complex that connects the extracellular matrix to cells and other matrix components. Its protective role helps cells resist mechanical stress and the network provided by collagen VI powder stabilizes the tissue architecture. Additionally low endotoxin collagen is often preferable in research to minimize inflammatory responses during experimentation providing more accurate results.

Pathways

Collagen VI participates in extracellular matrix organization and mechanotransduction pathways. It functions alongside other proteins like collagen I and IV. In particular collagen VI interacts with cell surface receptors which influences cellular communication and signaling pathways. This interaction plays a role in transmitting mechanical signals that affect cellular behavior and function proving important for tissue maintenance and repair processes.

Associated diseases and disorders

Mutations or malfunctions involving collagen VI can lead to significant clinical outcomes. It is prominently linked with disorders such as Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy and Bethlem myopathy both affecting muscle and connective tissue. These conditions often involve disruptions in the assembly or function of the collagen VI network. Additionally related proteins like collagen I and integrin proteins can influence the progression and severity of these disorders illustrating the interconnected nature of these extracellular elements.

    ab199720 was shown to recognize Collagen VI in wild-type Hek 293T cells as signal was lost at the expected MW in COL6A1 knockout cells. Additional cross-reactive bands were observed in the wild-type and knockout cells. Wild-type and COL6A1 knockout samples were subjected to SDS-PAGE. ab199720 and Anti-GAPDH antibody [mAbcam 9484] - Loading Control ab9484 (Mouse anti GAPDH loading control) were incubated overnight at 4°C at 1/1000 dilution and 1/20000 dilution respectively. Blots were developed with Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preabsorbed Goat anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (IRDye® 800CW) preadsorbed ab216773 and Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preabsorbed Goat anti-Mouse IgG H&L (IRDye® 680RD) preadsorbed ab216776 secondary antibodies at 1/20000 dilution for 1 hour at room temperature before imaging.
