COL19A1 - collagen type XIX alpha 1 chain Gene
Also Known as COL9A1L; D6S228E
Species: Homo sapiens
About COL19A1
This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 132 orthologues and 23 paralogues. Broad expression in lymph node (RPKM 1.1), appendix (RPKM 0.8) and 14 other tissues.
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]
