COL3A1 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein collagen type III alpha 1 chain, which is encoded by the COL3A1 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is known to be involved in cell matrix adhesion and nervous system development. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 1466 residues, a mass of 138.6 kDa, and is a member of the Fibrillar collagen protein family. It is known to be localized in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. As many as 2 protein isoforms have been reported. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally glycosylated. The COL3A1 gene has been associated with the disease, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. Other alias names for this target include EDSVASC, PMGEDSV, collagen alpha-1(III) chain, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type IV, autosomal dominant, alpha-1 type III collagen, and EDS4A.
There are COL3A1 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 12.5 pg/mL and as high as 300 µg/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
