| Primary Identifier | MGI:88449 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
| Chromosome | 4 | NCBI Gene Number | 12819 |
| Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
| description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 8.0.0) Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent conferring tensile strength. Predicted to be involved in extracellular matrix organization. Located in basement membrane. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; genitourinary system; heart and pericardium; metatarsal bone; and nervous system. Orthologous to human COL15A1 (collagen type XV alpha 1 chain). PHENOTYPE: Homozygous mutation of this gene results in abnormal muscle cells of variable size (including atrophic and split muscle cells), susceptibility to exercise-induced muscle injury, and abnormalities in heart and skeletal muscle capillary endothelium.
