COL4A3 Human

Collagen Type IV Alpha 3 Human Recombinant Human a3 chain of collagen IV; identical with the antigen called "glomerular basal membrane antigen" (GBM). Recombinant antigen for solid (ELISA) and fluid phase diagnostic assays. Binds IgG-type human auto-antibodies. Calculated Molecular weight: 43,591 Dalton. Calculated isoelectric point: pH 8.9. cDNA coding for a minicollagen version of the human collagen IV a3 chain fused to a hexa-histidine purification tag. The term minicollagen designates the removal of most of the epitope-less triplehelical collagenous region (situated between the N-terminal 7S domain and the C-terminal noncollagenous NC1 domain), which is a requirement for recombinant production of this antigen. - 10ug
