Col2a1 - collagen type II alpha 1 chain Gene
Also Known as CG2A1A; COLLII
Species: Rattus norvegicus
Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including MHC class II protein binding activity; identical protein binding activity; and platelet-derived growth factor binding activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Involved in several processes, including cartilage development; cellular response to hormone stimulus; and cellular response to mechanical stimulus. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix and cytoplasm. Used to study degenerative disc disease; hypothyroidism; and osteoarthritis. Biomarker of degenerative disc disease and osteonecrosis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Stickler syndrome (multiple); bone disease (multiple); cleft palate; eye disease (multiple); and multiple epiphyseal dysplasia with myopia and deafness. Orthologous to human COL2A1 (Collagen type II alpha 1 chain). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
