Summary: Predicted to enable identical protein binding activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent conferring tensile strength. Involved in response to hydrostatic pressure and response to xenobiotic stimulus. Located in extracellular space. Used to study hepatocellular carcinoma. Biomarker of gastric ulcer and ulcerative colitis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in primary angle-closure glaucoma. Orthologous to human COL18A1 (collagen type XVIII alpha 1 chain).

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.
