collagen 6 alpha-6 (COL6A6)
Function:
- collagen 6 acts as a cell-binding protein
- Pro at the third position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-X-Y) are hydroxylated in some or all of the chains
- trimers composed of three different chains: COL6A1, COL6A2, & COL6A3 or COL6A5 or COL6A6 (probable)
Structure:
- belongs to the type VI collagen family
- contains 9 VWFA domains
Compartment:
- secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix (putative)
- deposed in the extracellular matrix of skeletal muscle (putative)
Alternative splicing: named isoforms=2
