Summary: This gene encodes the alpha-1 subunit of the fibril-forming type III collagen found in bone, cartilage, dentin, tendon, bone marrow stroma and other connective tissue. The encoded protein forms homotrimeric type III procollagen that undergoes proteolytic processing during fibril formation. A majority of mice lacking the encoded protein die within two days of birth but about 5% of the animals survive to adulthood. The surviving mice exhibit severe cortical malformation and experience significantly shorter lifespan. The mutant mouse named "tight skin 2" exhibiting systemic sclerosis phenotype was found to harbor a missense point mutation in this gene. A pseudogene of this gene has been defined on chromosome 8.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
