Collagen Type IV IHC Antibody

Product Description

Description

Collagen IV is comprised of a third chain(alpha-3) together with the
2 classical ones, alpha-1 and alpha-2. COL4A3 gene is localized to 
2q36-q37 by analysis of somatic cell hybrids and by in situ 
hybridization. The alpha-3 chain of type IV collagen induces 
autoimmune Goodpasture syndrome. Mutations in the COL4A4 and
COL4A3 genes cause familial benign hematuria.
