Rabbit Anti-Bovine Collagen Type I/III (COL1/COL3) Polyclonal Antibody

Bovine collagen type I/III is a major component of the extracellular matrix, providing structural support and integrity to various tissues such as skin, tendons, ligaments, and bones. Type I collagen accounts for approximately 90% of the total collagen in the body and is characterized by its triple helix structure, which confers high tensile strength and flexibility. Type III collagen, often found alongside Type I, is crucial for maintaining tissue elasticity and is particularly abundant in rapidly growing tissues. These collagens are synthesized by fibroblasts, osteoblasts, and chondrocytes and undergo extensive post-translational modifications to enhance their stability and function.
