collagen 27 alpha-1 (COL27A1, KIAA1870)

Function: - role during the calcification of cartilage & the transition of cartilage to bone Structure: - belongs to the fibrillar collagen family - contains 16 collagen-like domains - contains 1 laminin G-like domain - contains 1 TSP N-terminal (TSPN) domain Compartment: - secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix - found on some small banded collagen fibrils & meshworks (putative) Alternative splicing: named isoforms=3 Expression: - detected at E67 in the primary ossification center - tightly restricted to the pericellular region of the hypertrophic chondrocytes & lacunae at the very center of the future diaphysis - at fetal 20-week highly abundant in the hypertrophic zone at the chondroosseous junction - weakly detected around cells in the resting & proliferative zone of the cartilagenous plate, but intense detection occurred deep in the hypertrophic zone near the newly formed bone - detected throughout the extracellular matrix (ECM) - closely situated around hypertrophic chondrocytes
