Human Gene Description (OMIM)COLLAGEN, TYPE IV, ALPHA-4; COL4A4

MIM number: 120131 

Description: Type IV collagen is found only in basement membranes, where it is the major structural component. COL4A4 is 1 of 6 alpha chains that form the heterotrimeric type IV collagen molecules (Mariyama et al., 1994).
