It has been reported that the immunodominant epitope of COL4A3 is a cryptic epitope that is not easily, Direct ELISA (coating concentration 0.12-0.5 ug/ml depending on the type of ELISA plate and coating buffer). Suitable for biotinylation and iodination. It has been reported that the immunodominant epitope of COL4A3 is a cryptic epitope that is not easily accessible to the corresponding autoantibodies. It is necessary to treat the protein under nonreducing conditions with a denaturant such as urea to unmask the epitopes (see Hellmark et al. in Autoantibodies, Peter, J.B. and Shoenfeld, Y., eds., Elsevier B.V., 1996, pp 291-298).

Description

Description

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: 53 kDa. 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.

Immunological Functions

  1. Binds IgG-type human auto-antibodies.
  2. Standard ELISA test (checkerboard analysis of positive/negative samples.
  3. Immunodot test with positive/negative samples.

Stability & Storage

Storage/Stability
Recommendations for storage buffer: Ionic strength between 50 and 100 mM, neutral to slightly alkaline pH and 4 M urea as dissociating agent. Storage temperature is -70° to -80° C.Please prevent freeze-thaw cycles.
