Predicted to be a structural constituent of cuticle. Predicted to be located in membrane. Predicted to be part of collagen trimer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in artery disease (multiple); brain small vessel disease 2; and porencephaly. Is an ortholog of human COL4A2 (collagen type IV alpha 2 chain).
Map position created from combination of previous interpolated map position (based on known location of sequence) and allele information. Therefore this is not a genetic map position based on recombination frequencies or genetic experiments. This was done on advice of the CGC.
