Monoclonal Anti-Collagen, Type X (mouse IgM isotype) is derived from the COL-10 hybridoma produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from a BALB/c mouse immunized with porcine collagen type X. Collagen type X shares a similar domain structure with type VIII collagen: a central triple-helical (COL1) domain of 50 kDa is flanked by N-terminal (NC2) and C-terminal (NC1) non-triple-helical domains.

Biochem Physiol Actions: Type X collagen is a product of hypertrophic chondrocytes. Type X collagen is non-fibrillar, but forms fine pericellular filaments in association with cartilage collagen. It interacts with matrix proteins, such as connexin V, chondrocalcein, collagen II and proteoglycans, as well as with Ca2+. It acts as a scaffold to avoid local collapse during endochondral ossification and also has a role in cartilage mineralization. Mutations in the NC1-encoding domain of the human a1(X) collagen gene, are associated with Schmid metaphysical chondroplasia.
