About Col6a2

Summary

Predicted to enable Collagen binding activity. Predicted to act upstream of or within cell adhesion. Located in extracellular matrix and sarcolemma. Is expressed in several structures, including cardiovascular system; extraembryonic component; gut; nervous system; and reproductive system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy. Orthologous to human COL6A2 (Collagen type VI alpha 2 chain). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
