PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
STRUCTURE
motifs/domains
  • meshwork forming collagen with a GLy-X-Y repeat sequence interspersed by small interruptions
  • non collagenous I domain (NC1), tumstatin, endogenous inhibitor of pathological angiogenesis and suppressing tumor growth
  • C terminal peptide seqence inhibiting melanoma cell proliferation
  • HOMOLOGY
    interspecies homolog to murine Col4a3
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • type IV collagen family
  • CATEGORY structural protein , tumor suppressor
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular

    basic FUNCTION
  • functioning as an endothelial cell-specific inhibitor of protein synthesis
  • inhibiting angiogenesis and tumor growth
  • formation of basement membranes
  • functioning as an endogenous inhibitor of pathological angiogenesis and a novel suppressor of proliferating endothelial cells and growth of tumors
