Rat Collagen autoantibody (CLA) ELISA Kit
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a brain-specific membrane associated collagen. A product of proteolytic processing of the encoded protein, CLAC (collagenous Alzheimer amyloid plaque component), binds to amyloid beta-peptides found in Alzheimer amyloid plaques but CLAC inhibits rather than facilitates amyloid fibril elongation (PMID: 16300410). A study of over-expression of this collagen in mice, however, found changes in pathology and behavior suggesting that the encoded protein may promote amyloid plaque formation (PMID: 19548013). Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Dec 2011]
Uniprot Description

Product Notes
The Rat CLA col25a1 (Catalog #AAA260456) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA260456 ELISA Kit recognizes Rat CLA. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Collagen autoantibody (CLA), ELISA Kit" 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
