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 degree C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition.

Accurate MW: 35kDa
NCBI Description
This gene encodes the alpha-1 subunit of the fibril-forming type II collagen, the major component of cartilage and the vitreous humor of the eye. The encoded preproprotein forms homotrimeric, triple helical procollagen that undergoes proteolytic processing during fibirl formation. Mice harboring certain mutations in this gene exhibit severe chondrodysplasia characterized by short limbs and trunch, craniofacial deformities and cleft palate. A complete lack of the encoded protein in mice results in postnatal lethality. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar proteolytic processing. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2015]
Uniprot Description
COL2A1: the alpha-1 chain of type II collagen, an extra-cellular matrix protein found in cartilage and the vitreous humor of the eye. It is essential for the normal embryonic development of the skeleton, for linear growth and for the ability of cartilage to resist compressive forces. Chondrocalcin is the calcium binding C-propeptide of this collagen molecule. Defects in this protein are associated with achondrogenesis, chondrodysplasia, early onset familial osteoarthritis, SED congenita, Langer-Saldino achondrogenesis, Kniest dysplasia, Stickler syndrome type I, and spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia Strudwick type. There are two transcripts identified for this gene. Belongs to the fibrillar collagen family. 3 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The PIICP col2a1 (Catalog #AAA2105319) is a Recombinant Protein produced from Host: E Coli Source: Prokaryotic Expression and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The immunogen sequence is Asp1242~Leu1487. AAA Biotech's Procollagen II C-Terminal Propeptide (PIICP) can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Positive Control, Immunogen, SDS-PAGE, Western Blot (WB). Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the PIICP col2a1 for an application not listed in the data sheet. Researchers commonly develop new applications and it is an integral, important part of the investigative research process. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Procollagen II C-Terminal Propeptide (PIICP), Recombinant Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
