| Description : |
Type V collagen (COLV) is a regulatory fibril-forming collagen. It has at least three different molecular isoforms-α1 (V)2 α2 (V), α1 (V)3, and α1 (V)α2 (V)α3 (V)-formed by combinations of three different polypeptide α chains-α1 (V), α2 (V), and α3 (V). COL V is a relatively minor collagen of the extracellular matrix (ECM). |
| Form : |
Lyophilized, salt free, sterile 1 mg/vial |
| Purity : |
Bovine Collagen Type V (Atelocollagen) > 98% |
| Applications : |
Cell culture (coating) |
| Storage : |
Lyophilized protein: shipping at ambient temperature, long term storage (2 years) at -20 centigrade or lower. Storage of reconstituted protein 1 month at +4 centigrade |
| Reconstitution : |
Reconstitution: Dissolve in 20 mM acetic acid. Suspension should be shaken or stirred for several hours or overnight between 2-8 centigrade. Material is dissolved when it appears homogeneous, with no schlieren pattern (light refraction due to differing protein concentrations in the suspension). Recommended concentration 1-5 mg/ml. After dissolution store 1 month at +4 centigrade. |
