    Summary
    Predicted to enable collagen binding activity. Involved in response to glucose. Predicted to be located in extracellular matrix; extracellular region; and sarcolemma. Predicted to be part of protein-containing complex. Predicted to be active in collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Bethlem myopathy and Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy 1B. Orthologous to human COL6A2 (collagen type VI alpha 2 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.
