| UniProt Protein Function: | COL19A1: May act as a cross-bridge between fibrils and other extracellular matrix molecules. Involved in skeletal myogenesis in the developing esophagus. May play a role in organization of the pericellular matrix or the sphinteric smooth muscle. Belongs to the fibril-associated collagens with interrupted helices (FACIT) family.Protein type: Motility/polarity/chemotaxis; Secreted; Secreted, signal peptideChromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 6q12-q13Cellular Component: endoplasmic reticulum lumen; extracellular regionBiological Process: collagen catabolic process; skeletal development |
| UniProt Protein Details: | |
| NCBI Summary: | 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] |
