uniprot entry name :
CO2A1_HUMAN
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of CoL-2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between CoL-2 and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between CoL-2 and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist in some cases.
storage stability :
Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C.
other info1 :
Samples: Serum, plasma, Cell Culture Supernatants, body fluid and tissue homogenate. Assay Type: Competitive. Sensitivity: 1.0 ng/mL.
other info2 :
Intended Uses: This CoL-2 ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Rabbit CoL-2. This ELISA kit for research use only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications!

products description :
Principle of the assay: CoL-2 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-CoL-2 antibody and an CoL-2-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with CoL-2-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the CoL-2 concentration since CoL-2 from samples and CoL-2-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-CoL-2 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by CoL-2 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind CoL-2-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The CoL-2 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes the alpha-1 chain of type II collagen, a fibrillar collagen found in cartilage and the vitreous humor of the eye. Mutations in this gene are associated with achondrogenesis, chondrodysplasia, early onset familial osteoarthritis, SED congenita, Langer-Saldino achondrogenesis, Kniest dysplasia, Stickler syndrome type I, and spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia Strudwick type. In addition, defects in processing chondrocalcin, a calcium binding protein that is the C-propeptide of this collagen molecule, are also associated with chondrodysplasia. There are two transcripts identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
uniprot summary :
COL2A1: the alpha-1 chain of type II collagen, an extra-cellular matrix protein found in cartilage and the vitreous humor of the eye. It is essential for the normal embryonic development of the skeleton, for linear growth and for the ability of cartilage to resist compressive forces. Chondrocalcin is the calcium binding C-propeptide of this collagen molecule. Defects in this protein are associated with achondrogenesis, chondrodysplasia, early onset familial osteoarthritis, SED congenita, Langer-Saldino achondrogenesis, Kniest dysplasia, Stickler syndrome type I, and spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia Strudwick type. There are two transcripts identified for this gene. Belongs to the fibrillar collagen family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing. Protein type: Secreted; Extracellular matrix; Secreted, signal peptide. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 12q13.11. Cellular Component: extracellular matrix; extracellular space; endoplasmic reticulum lumen; collagen type II; extracellular region; basement membrane.
