Collagen type XII, alpha 1 is a collagen that the gene COL12A1 is encoded. It forms homotrimers , which in turn form type XII collagen fibrils .

properties

Type XII collagen interacts with fibrils that contain type I collagen. Hence it is also known as fibril-associated. The COL1 domain becomes associated with the fibril surface and the COL2 and NC3 domains are likely to be in the surrounding matrix . It is responsible for cell adhesion , collagen catabolism , the organization of the collagen fibrils in the cytoskeleton , endodermal cell differentiation and the development of the skeleton.

The isoforms 1 and 2 are located in the amnion , the chorion , in skeletal muscle , small intestine and in the cell culture of dermal fibroblasts , keratinocytes , and endothelial cells . Only isoform 2 is found in the lungs , placenta and in the cell line of squamous cell carcinoma . Isoform 1 is also found in Bowman's membrane and in the interfibrillary matrix of the stroma of the cornea.

Mutations in the COL12A1 gene can lead to Bethlem myopathy 2 and Ullrich type 2 congenital muscular dystrophy .
