Product Specific Information

Target Information

This gene encodes the alpha-3 chain, one of the three alpha chains of type VI collagen, a beaded filament collagen found in most connective tissues.
The alpha-3 chain of type VI collagen is much larger than the alpha-1 and -2 chains due to an increased number of subdomains, similar to von Willebrand Factor type A domains, found in the amino terminal globular domain of all alpha chains.
These domains bind extracellular matrix proteins, explaining the importance of this collagen in organizing matrix components.

Mutations in type VI collagen genes are associated with Bethlem myopathy, a rare autosomal dominant proximal myopathy with early childhood onset.
Mutations in this gene also cause Ullrich congenital muscular dystrophy, an autosomal recessive congenital myopathy more severe than Bethlem myopathy.
Multiple transcript variants have been identified, though only some full-length variants are known.
