Background

Function
Collagen III (COL3A1) is a fibrillar extracellular matrix collagen synthesized as pre-procollagen and enriched in extensible tissues, including skin, blood vessels, intestine, uterus, and lung[1]. Mechanistically, collagen III regulates collagen I fibrillogenesis, fibril diameter, extracellular matrix architecture, and tissue mechanical integrity[2][3]. In wound models, collagen III supports re-epithelialization and limits scar-associated collagen fiber alignment, while reduced collagen III increases myofibroblast differentiation and scar deposition[4][5]. In disease models, COL3A1 mutations or deficiency produce vascular and dermal fragility resembling vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome[6][7]. Compared with collagen I, collagen III functions less as a dominant tensile scaffold and more as a fibril-network modifier that controls matrix organization, mechanosensing, and repair quality[2][3][4]. For experimental applications, the collagen III N-propeptide cysteine-rich domain attenuates TGFβ signaling and suppresses fibroblast activation, supporting its use as a mechanistic inhibitor tool in fibrosis and scarring studies[8].

Isoforms & Post-Translational Modification
P02461 has 2 isomers: P02461-1: 138564 Da (predicted); P02461-2: 111907 Da (predicted).
Proline residues at the third position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-X-Y) are hydroxylated in some or all of the chains;O-linked glycan consists of a Glc-Gal disaccharide bound to the oxygen atom of a post-translationally added hydroxyl group -
Subunit
Trimers of identical alpha 1(III) chains. The chains are linked to each other by interchain disulfide bonds. Trimers are also cross-linked via hydroxylysines. Interacts with ADGRG1 (PubMed:28258187)
