关于 COL19A1

功能概要

该基因编码 XIX 型胶原蛋白的 α 链，它是 FACIT 胶原蛋白家族 (具有间断螺旋的原纤维相关胶原蛋白) 的成员。虽然这种胶原蛋白的功能尚不清楚，但发现该胶原蛋白家族的其他成员与形成原纤维的胶原蛋白如 I 型和 II 型相关，并用于维持细胞外基质的完整性。由该基因产生的转录物具有异常大的 3' UTR，尚未完全测序。[RefSeq 提供，2008 年 7 月]

This gene encodes the alpha chain of type XIX Collagen, a member of the FACIT Collagen family (fibril-associated collagens with interrupted helices). Although the function of this Collagen is not known, Other members of this Collagen family are found in association with fibril-forming collagens such as type I and II, and serve to maintain the integrity of the extracellular matrix. The transcript produced from this gene has an unusually large 3' UTR which has not been completely sequenced. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
