About COL15A1

Cytogenetic location: 9q22.33 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 9:98,911,204-99,070,787 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 179 orthologues and 37 paralogues. Broad expression in placenta (RPKM 113.8), fat (RPKM 52.0) and 17 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes the alpha chain of type XV collagen, a member of the FACIT collagen family (fibril-associated collagens with interrupted helices). Type XV collagen has a wide tissue distribution but the strongest expression is localized to basement membrane zones so it may function to adhere basement membranes to underlying connective tissue stroma. The proteolytically produced C-terminal fragment of type XV collagen is restin, a potentially antiangiogenic protein that is closely related to endostatin. Mouse studies have shown that collagen XV deficiency is associated with muscle and microvessel deterioration. [provided by RefSeq, May 2013]
