Background
Collagen I is a Type I collagen with a triple helix structure comprised of two alpha-1 chains and one alpha-2 chain. Collagen I is a member of group I collagen (fibril-forming collagen) found in most connective tissues, and is abundant in bone, cornea, dermis and tendon. Mutations in the COL1A2 gene encoding the alpha-2 chain are associated with osteogenesis imperfecta types I-IV, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIIB, recessive Ehlers-Danlos syndrome Classical type, idiopathic osteoporosis, and atypical Marfan syndrome. Symptoms associated with mutations in the COL1A2 gene which codes for the alpha-2 chain, however, tend to be less severe than mutations in the COL1A1 gene, reflecting the different role of alpha-2 chains in matrix integrity. Reciprocal translocations between chromosomes 17 and 22, where Collagen Type 1 genes and the gene for platelet derived growth factor beta are located, are associated with a particular type of skin tumor called dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans, resulting from unregulated expression of the growth factor. Two transcripts, resulting from the use of alternate polyadenylation signals, have been identified.

Notes
- The positive control slide provided in the kit allows you to be sure that the experimental set-up is working properly.
- Do not allow slides to dry at any time during this procedure.
- Please don't replace the matching reagents in this product with other manufacturers' products.
- As DAB is a carcinogen, please take necessary precautions.
- PBS (reagent 1) can be stored for one week at 4℃ after preparation; The antigen retrieval buffer (1×reagent 2) and the chromogenic agent (the mixture of reagents 7 and 8) should be prepared right before each assay.
As DAB is a carcinogen, please take necessary precautions.
