Description

Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent. Acts upstream of or within glomerular basement membrane development and glomerular filtration. Predicted to be located in basement membrane and extracellular region. Predicted to be part of collagen trimer. Is expressed in several structures, including gill; gonad primordium; hypodermis; lens; and pronephros. Used to study Alport syndrome. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alport syndrome; autosomal dominant Alport syndrome; autosomal recessive Alport syndrome; benign familial hematuria; and end stage renal disease. Orthologous to human COL4A3 (collagen type IV alpha 3 chain).
