Extra Details:: Collagen is the main structural protein in the extracellular space and is the most abundant protein in the ECM. Collagens are divided into two classes - fibril (types I, II, III, V) and non-fibril (types IV, VI). Type V collagen is a minor connective tissue component of nearly ubiquitous distribution. Type V collagen mutations are associated with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Type V collagen is broadly expressed as a two α1(V) chains and one α2(V) chain heterotrimer but also as a α1(V), α2(V), and α3(V) heterotrimer in pancreatic islets, adipose tissue, and skeletal muscle. Applications: Suitable for use in ELISA and SDS-PAGE. Other applications not tested. Recommended Dilutions: Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
