      DescriptionMillicoat™ Human Collagen Type I Coated Strips (96-Wells)
      OverviewCell adhesion plays a major role in cellular communication and regulation, and is of fundamental importance in the development and maintenance of tissues. Scientists are continually examining the adhesion and migration of many diverse cell types on various extracellular matrix (ECM) component proteins. Millicoat™ Cell Adhesion Strips are provided as 12 x 8-well removable strips in a plate frame for convenience and flexibility in designing assays. The wells in rows A - G have been coated with Human Collagen Type I. Row H of each strip is coated with BSA which serves as a negative assay control. Cells are seeded onto the coated substrate. Subsequently, adherent cells are fixed and stained. Relative attachment is determined using absorbance readings.

      Application NotesPROCEDURE:

      NOTE: Optimal assay timing and performance may vary for different cell lines but generally can be obtained using subconfluent cell cultures in the assay described below. Subconfluent cultures can be achieved by splitting cells 1 to 2 days prior to performing the assay.

      1. Rehydrate the strips with 200 mL of PBS per well for at least 15 minutes at room temperature. Remove the PBS from the rehydrated strips.

      2. Prepare a single cell suspension, preferably using a non-enzymatic dissociation buffer. Optimum cell density may be determined by titration of the cells. A common starting range is between 1x10E05 to 1x10E07 cells/mL.

      3. Add 100 mL of the diluted cell suspension to each well. Incubate the plate at 37°C for 45 minutes in a CO2 incubator. Gently wash the plate 2-3 times with PBS containing Ca2+/Mg2+ (200 mL/well).

      4. Add 100 mL of 0.2% crystal violet in 10% ethanol to each well. Incubate for 5 minutes at room temperature. Remove the stain from the wells. Gently wash the strips 3-5 times with PBS (300 mL/well) to remove the excess stain.

      5. Add 100 mL of Solubilization Buffer (A 50/50 mixture of 0.1M NaH2PO4, pH 4.5 and 50% ethanol) to each well. Allow strips to incubate and gently shake at room temperature until the cell-bound stain is completely solubilized; approximately 5 minutes.

      6. Determine the absorbance at 540 - 570 nm on a microplate reader.

      Entrez Gene Number
      Entrez Gene SummaryThis gene encodes the pro-alpha1 chains of type I collagen whose triple helix comprises two alpha1 chains and one alpha2 chain. Type I is a fibril-forming collagen found in most connective tissues and is abundant in bone, cornea, dermis and tendon. Mutations in this gene are associated with osteogenesis imperfecta types I-IV, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIIA, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome Classical type, Caffey Disease and idiopathic osteoporosis. Reciprocal translocations between chromosomes 17 and 22, where this gene 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 for this gene. [provided by R. Dalgleish]

      UniProt Number
      UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: SwissProt: P02452 # Type I collagen is a member of group I collagen (fibrillar forming collagen).
      SIZE: 1464 amino acids; 138911 Da
      SUBUNIT: Trimers of one alpha 2(I) and two alpha 1(I) chains. Interacts with MRC2 (By similarity).
      SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix (By similarity).
      TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Forms the fibrils of tendon, ligaments and bones. In bones the fibrils are mineralized with calcium hydroxyapatite.
      PTM: Proline residues at the third position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-X-Y) are hydroxylated in some or all of the chains. & O-linked glycan consists of a Glc-Gal disaccharide bound to the oxygen atom of a post-translationally added hydroxyl group.
      DISEASE: SwissProt: P02452 # Defects in COL1A1 are the cause of Caffey disease [MIM:114000]; also known as infantile cortical hyperostosis. Caffey disease is characterized by an infantile episode of massive subperiosteal new bone formation that typically involves the diaphyses of the long bones, mandible, and clavicles. The involved bones may also appear inflamed, with painful swelling and systemic fever often accompanying the illness. The bone changes usually begin before 5 months of age and resolve before 2 years of age. & Defects in COL1A1 are a cause of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type I (EDS-I) [MIM:130000]; also known as Ehlers-Danlos syndrome gravis. Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a genetically and phenotypically heterogeneous connective-tissue disorder characterized by loose- jointedness and fragile, velvety, stretchable, bruisable skin that heals with peculiar 'cigarette-paper' scars. EDS-I is an autosomal dominant trait. & Defects in COL1A1 are a cause of autosomal dominant Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VII (EDS-VII) [MIM:130060]; which includes also Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VII-A1. EDS-VII is characterized by arthrochalasis multiplex congenita, skin hyperextensibility and bruisability. & Defects in COL1A1 are a cause of osteogenesis imperfecta type I (OI-I) [MIM:166200]. OI-I is a dominantly inherited serious newborn disease characterized by bone fragility, normal stature, little or no deformity, blue sclerae and hearing loss in 50% of families. Dentinogenesis imperfecta is rare and may distinguish a subset of OI type I (formation of dentine). & Defects in COL1A1 are a cause of osteogenesis imperfecta type II (OI-II) [MIM:166210]; also known as osteogenesis imperfecta congenita. OI-II is lethal in the perinatal period and is charaterized by calvarial mineralization, beaded ribs, compressed femurs, marked long bone deformity and platyspondyly (congenital flattening of the vertebral bodies). & Defects in COL1A1 are a cause of osteogenesis imperfecta type III (OI-III) [MIM:259420]; also called progressively deforming osteogenesis imperfecta with normal sclerae. OI-III is characterized by progressively deforming bones, usually with moderate deformity at birth, sclerae is variable in color, dentinogenesis imperfecta and hearing loss are common. The stature is very short. & Defects in COL1A1 are a cause of osteogenesis imperfecta type IV (OI-IV) [MIM:166220]. OI-IV is charaterized by normal sclerae, moderate to mild deformity and variable short stature. Dentinogenesis imperfecta is common and hearing loss occurs in some patients. & Genetic variations in COL1A1 are associated with susceptibility to involutional osteoporosis [MIM:166710]; also known as senile osteoporosis or postmenopausal osteoporosis. Osteoporosis is characterized by reduced bone mineral density, disrutption of bone microarchitecture, and the alteration of the amount and variety of non-collagenous proteins in bone. Osteoporotic bones are more at risk of fracture. & A chromosomal aberration involving COL1A1 is a cause of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans (DFSP) [MIM:607907]. Translocation t(17;22)(q22;q13) with PDGF. DFSP is an uncommon, locally aggressive, but rarely metastasizing tumor of the deep dermis and subcutaneous tissue. It typically occurs during early or middle adult life and is most frequently located on the trunk and proximal extremities.
      SIMILARITY: SwissProt: P02452 ## Belongs to the fibrillar collagen family. & Contains 1 VWFC domain.
