Collagen alpha-3(IV) chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL4A3 gene. [5] [6] Type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes, is a multimeric protein composed of 3 alpha subunits; this gene encodes the alpha 3 subunit. These subunits are encoded by 6 different genes, alpha 1 through alpha 6, each of which ...
The COL3A1 gene is located on the long (q) arm of chromosome 2 at 2q32.2, between positions 188 974 372 and 189 012 745. The gene has 51 exons and is approximately 40 kbp long. [7] The COL3A1 gene is in tail-to-tail orientation with a gene for another fibrillar collagen, namely COL5A2. [7]
Collagen alpha-3(V) chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL5A3 gene. [5] [6]This gene encodes an alpha chain for one of the low abundance fibrillar collagens. Fibrillar collagen molecules are trimers that can be composed of one or more types of alpha chain
Collagen alpha-3(VI) chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL6A3 gene. [ 5 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] This protein is an alpha chain of type VI collagen that aids in microfibril formation. [ 8 ] As part of type VI collagen, this protein has been implicated in Bethlem myopathy, Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy (UCMD), and other diseases ...
The alpha-3 subunit (COL4A3) of collagen IV is thought to be the antigen implicated in Goodpasture syndrome, wherein the immune system attacks the basement membranes of the glomeruli and the alveoli upon the antigenic site on the alpha-3 subunit becomes unsequestered due to environmental exposures.
Collagen, type I, alpha 1, also known as alpha-1 type I collagen, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL1A1 gene. COL1A1 encodes the major component of type I collagen , the fibrillar collagen found in most connective tissues , including cartilage .

Collagen is also abundant in corneas, blood vessels, the gut, intervertebral discs, and the dentin in teeth. [3] In muscle tissue, it serves as a major component of the endomysium. Collagen constitutes 1% to 2% of muscle tissue and 6% by weight of skeletal muscle. [4] The fibroblast is the most common cell creating collagen in animals.
