简介
COL4A1 protein is an important type IV collagen component that forms the main structural framework of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) with a unique "chicken wire" mesh structure. It cooperates with laminin, proteoglycans and nestin/nesidin to maintain the structural integrity of GBM. COL4A1 Protein, Human (His) is the recombinant human-derived COL4A1 protein, expressed by E. coli, with C-His labeled tag.

Stability Test
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37℃ for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate isless than 8% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.
-
Storage & Shelf Life
Samples are stable for up to twelve months from date of receipt at -20℃ to -80℃. Store it under sterile conditions at -20℃ to -80℃. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Protein Description
COL4A1 is a gene that encodes one of the collagen type IV chains, which are crucial components of basement membranes, providing structural support and maintaining tissue integrity. Mutations in COL4A1 have been linked to various diseases, including cerebrovascular abnormalities, kidney disease, and muscular dystrophy. The study of COL4A1 recombinant protein is essential for understanding the functional roles of this collagen in physiological and pathological processes. Researchers have focused on producing recombinant COL4A1 to investigate its molecular interactions, structural properties, and potential therapeutic applications. By using techniques such as recombinant DNA technology and protein expression systems, scientists can generate large quantities of COL4A1 protein to study its biological significance in both health and disease. This research not only contributes to our understanding of collagen-related disorders but also paves the way for developing targeted therapies that may mitigate the effects of COL4A1 mutations. Additionally, exploring the properties of COL4A1 can enhance tissue engineering approaches, where collagen and its derivatives are increasingly used to create biomaterials for regenerative medicine. Overall, the investigation of COL4A1 recombinant protein is a promising avenue for advancing both fundamental research and clinical applications in the field of collagen-associated diseases.
