This antibody binds ACC1 to the citrullinated triple-helical collagen type II (CII) epitope (position 359-369), the C1 epitope. The ACC1 antibody recognizes the second citrulline at position 365 in mouse Collagen Type II. The antibody binds to flexible triple-helical Collagen Type II determinants and many citrullinated CII peptides and was found to cross-react with several non-citrullinated epitopes on native Collagen Type II. It cross-reacts with mouse and human.

Citrullination of proteins is a post-translational modification in which arginine is converted into citrulline by a family of enzymes called peptidylarginine deiminases (PADs). Proteins are susceptible to citrullination during inflammatory processes, and an autoantibody response to citrullinated proteins is a hallmark of Rheumatoid Arthritis.

Synonyms:
COL2A1, Collagen Type II, Collagen alpha-1(II) chain, CII, Col II, citrullinated CII; citrullinated Col II; citrullinated proteins.

 

Monoclonal Antibody to ACC1 Citrullinated Collagen Type II, Affinity Purified

The Mouse Anti-citrullinated COL2A1 Antibody clone ACC1 binds to the triple helical C1 epitope on collagen II when citrullinated. Binding to collagen type II epitopes was determined in bead-based flow immunoassay as median fluorescence intensity (MFI).
