NCBI Description

This gene encodes the alpha 2 chain of type VIII collagen. This protein is a major component of the basement membrane of the corneal endothelium and forms homo- or heterotrimers with alpha 1 (VIII) type collagens. Defects in this gene are associated with Fuchs endothelial corneal dystrophy and posterior polymorphous corneal dystrophy type 2. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Product Notes

The COL8A2 col8a2 (Catalog #AAA2401429) is an Antibody produced from Rabbit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The Anti-COL8A2/Collagen VIII Antibody (aa571-599) reacts with Human and may cross-react with other species as described in the data sheet. AAA Biotech's COL8A2/Collagen VIII can be used in a range of immunoassay formats including, but not limited to, Immunofluorescence (IF), Immunohistochemistry (IHC) Paraffin, Western Blot (WB). IF: 1:10-1:50 IHC-P: 1:10-1:50 WB: 1:1000. Researchers should empirically determine the suitability of the COL8A2 col8a2 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 "COL8A2/Collagen VIII, Polyclonal Antibody" 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.
