COL6A2 Antibody - C-terminal region: Biotin (ARP45805_T100-Biotin)

COL6A2 is one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues. The protein contains several domains similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains. These domains have been shown to bind extracellular matrix proteins, an interaction that explains the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components. Mutations in its gene are associated with Bethlem myopathy and Ullrich scleroatonic muscular dystrophy.

All conjugated antibodies should be stored in light-protected vials or covered with a light protecting material (i.e. aluminum foil) . Conjugated antibodies are stable for at least 12 months at 4C. If longer storage is desired (24 months), conjugates may be diluted with up to 50% glycerol and stored at -20C to -80C. Freezing and thawing conjugated antibodies will compromise enzyme activity as well as antibody binding.
