Database References	HGNC: 27023 OMIM: 616613 KEGG: hsa:131873 STRING: 9606.ENSP00000351310 UniGene: PMID: 28125976 A whole-exome sequencing approach led to identification of a deletion in RHO through detection of a new linked variant in COL6A6 in autosomal dominant retinitis pigmentosa. PMID: 26321861 Reduced collagen VI alpha6 chain expression in the skeletal muscle is associated with collagen VI-related myopathies. PMID: 24907562 The collagen VI alpha6 chain, but not the alpha5 chain, is up-regulated in dystrophic muscles. PMID: 22226732 collagen VI alpha 6 is an important basal lamina component involved in the regulation of epithelial cell behavior most notably as a regulator of epithelial cell-fibronectin interactions PMID: 21406227 localization of alpha5, and to a lesser extent alpha6, is restricted to the papillary dermis, where the protein mainly colocalizes with collagen fibrils; both chains were found around blood vessels PMID: 20882040 The discovery of three additional collagen VI chains doubles the collagen VI family and adds a layer of complexity to collagen VI assembly and function in the extracellular matrix.

Proteins are sensitive to heat, and freeze-drying can preserve the activity of the majority of proteins. It improves protein stability, extends storage time, and reduces shipping costs. However, freeze-drying can also lead to the loss of the active portion of the protein and cause aggregation and denaturation issues. Nonetheless, these adverse effects can be minimized by incorporating protective agents such as stabilizers, additives, and excipients, and by carefully controlling various lyophilization conditions.

Commonly used protectant include saccharides, polyols, polymers, surfactants, some proteins and amino acids etc. We usually add 8% (mass ratio by volume) of trehalose and mannitol as lyoprotectant. Trehalose can significantly prevent the alter of the protein secondary structure, the extension and aggregation of proteins during freeze-drying process; mannitol is also a universal applied protectant and fillers, which can reduce the aggregation of certain proteins after lyophilization.

Our protein products do not contain carrier protein or other additives (such as bovine serum albumin (BSA), human serum albumin (HSA) and sucrose, etc., and when lyophilized with the solution with the lowest salt content, they often cannot form A white grid structure, but a small amount of protein is deposited in the tube during the freeze-drying process, forming a thin or invisible transparent protein layer.

Reminder: Before opening the tube cap, we recommend that you quickly centrifuge for 20-30 seconds in a small centrifuge, so that the protein attached to the tube cap or the tube wall can be aggregated at the bottom of the tube. Our quality control procedures ensure that each tube contains the correct amount of protein, and although sometimes you can't see the protein powder, the amount of protein in the tube is still very precise.
