COL4A1 Protein, Human (His)

Customer Review

Based on 1 Customer Validation

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.

Description

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.

Background

COL4A1 protein, a pivotal component of Type IV collagen, constitutes the primary structural framework of glomerular basement membranes (GBM), forming a distinctive 'chicken-wire' meshwork in collaboration with laminins, proteoglycans, and entactin/nidogen. Additionally, Arresten, consisting of the C-terminal NC1 domain of COL4A1, exerts a potent inhibitory effect on angiogenesis and tumor formation. Notably, the anti-angiogenic activity resides in the C-terminal half of COL4A1, where it selectively hampers endothelial cell proliferation, migration, and tube formation. This dual role of COL4A1 highlights its significance not only in maintaining the structural integrity of GBMs but also in modulating crucial processes such as angiogenesis and tumor development through the activity of Arresten.
