    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular

    basic FUNCTION
  • maintaining the integrity of ECM containing COLI fibers
  • may be involved in basement membrane regulation providing specific molecular bridges between fibrils and other matrix components (Thierry 2004)
  • with COL14A1, might well be able to serve different functions during human embryonic development although their structures are highly similar (Thierry 2004)

  • COLI fibers
  • COMP binds to COL12A1 and COL14A1 via their C-terminal collagenous domains, and three proteins codistribute in a characteristic narrow zone in the superficial papillary dermis of healthy human skin
