This CatchPoint SimpleStep sensitivity is 3.7 pg\/mL.\u003cbr\u003e\nHow the assay works\u003cbr\u003e\nHuman Pro-Collagen I alpha 1 CatchPoint SimpleStep ELISA employs an affinity tag labeled capture antibody and a reporter conjugated detector antibody which immunocapture the sample analyte in solution. This entire complex (capture antibody\/analyte\/detector antibody) is in turn immobilized via immunoaffinity of an anti-tag antibody coating the well. To perform the assay, samples or standards are added to the wells, followed by the antibody mix. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound material. CatchPoint HRP Development Solution containing the Stoplight Red Substrate is added. During incubation, the substrate is catalyzed by HRP generating a fluorescent product. Signal is generated proportionally to the amount of bound analyte and the intensity is measured in a fluorescence plater reader at 530\/570\/590 nm Excitation\/Cutoff\/Emission. This kit is optimised for Molecular Devices Readers: If using a Molecular Devices' plate reader supported by SoftMax\u003cbr\u003e\nPro software, a preconfigured protocol for these CatchPoint SimpleStep ELISA Kits is available with all the protocol and analysis settings at www.softmaxpro.org.\u003cbr\u003e\nAssay Specificity\u003cbr\u003e\nOur SimpleStep ELISA\u003cbr\u003e\nkits use recombinant monoclonal antibodies rigorously validated to ensure the highest level of consistency and reproducibility, improved sensitivity and specificity and ease of scalability and security of supply.\u003cbr\u003e\nPlease refer to our protocol booklet for more details.\u003cbr\u003e\nHuman Pro-Collagen I alpha 1 ELISA Kit, Fluorescent ab229389 protocol summary\u003cbr\u003e\n1.

It is synthesized as a pro-collagen molecule that is characterized by a 300 nm triple helical domain flanked by globular N- and C-terminal propeptides. Specifically, human Pro-Collagen I alpha 1 consists of a signal peptide (amino acids (aa) 1-22), a propeptide (aa 23-161), the mature chain (aa 162-1218), and another propeptide (aa 1219 – 1464). The non-helical propeptides are removed by procollagen N- and C-proteinase activities so that the mature triple helices can self-assemble into collagen fibrils that provide tensile strength to tissues.\u003cbr\u003e\nREACH authorisation\u003cbr\u003e\nAbcam has not and does not intend to apply for the REACH Authorisation of customers' uses of products that contain European Authorisation list (Annex XIV) substances.\u003cbr\u003e\nIt is the responsibility of our customers to check the necessity of application of REACH Authorisation, and any other relevant authorisations, for their intended uses.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nProcollagen Type 1 also known as Pro-1 collagen is a precursor molecule for collagen Type I which is the most abundant protein in the human body. Its molecular mass is approximately 230 kDa. This protein is synthesized by fibroblasts and is widely expressed in connective tissues including skin tendons and bones. Once synthesized procollagen Type 1 undergoes post-translational modifications and is cleaved by specific enzymes to form mature collagen fibers contributing to the structural integrity of the extracellular matrix.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nThe synthesis and processing of procollagen Type 1 play a major role in maintaining tissue strength and elasticity. This molecule is not part of a larger complex but undergoes self-assembly to form the rigid triple-helical structure typical of collagen fibers. These fibers are essential for providing mechanical support to tissues and facilitating cell adhesion. Additionally its presence is often required for normal wound healing processes and tissue regeneration.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nThe secretion and assembly of procollagen Type 1 occur through the secretory pathway. Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) signaling significantly regulates this process influencing fibrogenesis. This pathway also involves the interaction with proteins such as fibronectin and integrins which are important for aligning collagen fibers within the extracellular matrix. Furthermore procollagen Type 1 engages in the Wnt signaling pathway affecting the arrangement and stability of collagen networks.\u003cbr\u003e\nMutations or dysregulation of procollagen Type 1 synthesis may contribute to conditions such as osteogenesis imperfecta and scleroderma. In osteogenesis imperfecta defective collagen leads to brittle bones due to improper fiber formation. In scleroderma an overproduction of collagen causes skin thickening and organ fibrosis. The altered interaction of procollagen Type 1 with proteins like lysyl oxidase can exacerbate these pathological conditions highlighting the significance of proper collagen processing and assembly for tissue health.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843554594985,"sku":"ab229389","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab229389","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
