Gene: COL4A2

Alternate names for this Gene: BSVD2|ICH|POREN2

Gene Summary: This gene encodes one of the six subunits of type IV collagen, the major structural component of basement membranes. The C-terminal portion of the protein, known as canstatin, is an inhibitor of angiogenesis and tumor growth. Like the other members of the type IV collagen gene family, this gene is organized in a head-to-head conformation with another type IV collagen gene so that each gene pair shares a common promoter.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 13

Location in Chromosome : 13q34

Description of this Gene: collagen type IV alpha 2 chain

Type of Gene: protein-coding
