  • LC collagen
Background InformationCollagen alpha-1(VII) chain (UniProt: Q02388; also known as Long-chain collagen, LC collagen) is encoded by the COL7A1 gene (Gene ID: 1294) in human. Collagen is the most abundant protein in the body that is predominantly synthesized by fibroblasts. However, epithelial cells may also synthesize small amounts of collagen. The collagen super family includes over 20 different types of collagen with at least 38 distinct polypeptide chains. Collagen type VII is a homotrimeric protein that is primarily synthesized by keratinocytes and skin fibroblasts. It is composed of three identical alpha chains and its distribution is restricted to stratified squamous epithelial basement membrane. It contributes to epithelial basement membrane organization and adherence by interacting with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins. Type VII collagen contains a non-collagenous domain 1 (NC1), a central collagenous domain, and a non-collagenous domain 2 (NC2) that catalyze the anchoring fibril assembly. Mutations in COL7A1 gene have been linked to epidermolysis bullosa dystrophica, a blistering skin disease characterized by tissue separation that occurs below the dermal-epidermal basement membrane at the level of the anchoring fibrils. Clone LH7.2 is reported to binds to the epidermal basement membrane in normal adult skin and in fetal skin at 10 weeks of gestation. (Ref.: Heagerty, AHM., et al. (1986). J. Invest. Dermatol. 86(5); 603-605; Supp, DM., et al. (2019). Cell Transp. 28(9-10); 1242-1256).
