Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** COL9A2 is a specific isoform of collagen type IX, composed of two alpha chains. It is primarily expressed in non-pigmented ciliary epithelial cells, secondary lens fibers, and other epithelial cells. COL9A2 is a structural component of the ECM, contributing to the tensile strength and organization of tissues. Its unique structure allows it to interact with other ECM components, such as proteoglycans and integrins, facilitating cell adhesion, migration, and signaling. **Pathways and Functions:** COL9A2 is involved in several signaling pathways, including: 1. **Axon guidance and nervous system development:** COL9A2 interacts with Ncam1, a cell surface molecule involved in axon guidance and neurite outgrowth. 2. **Extracellular matrix organization:** COL9A2 contributes to the assembly and degradation of the ECM, regulating tissue structure and function. 3. **Skeletal system development:** COL9A2 is essential for the development and maintenance of skeletal tissues, including bone and cartilage. 4. **Collagen biosynthesis and modifying enzymes:** COL9A2 interacts with enzymes involved in collagen synthesis and modification, regulating the assembly and degradation of collagen fibrils. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of COL9A2 has been implicated in various human diseases, including: 1. **Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI):** A genetic disorder characterized by fragile bones and ECM defects, where COL9A2 mutations are a common cause. 2. **Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS):** A group of disorders characterized by ECM defects and tissue fragility, where COL9A2 mutations are a contributing factor. 3. **Cancer:** Aberrant COL9A2 expression has been linked to cancer progression, metastasis, and ECM remodeling. 4. **Neurological disorders:** COL9A2 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and multiple sclerosis. In conclusion, COL9A2 is a vital component of the extracellular matrix, playing a crucial role in maintaining tissue structure and function. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various human diseases, highlighting the importance of further research into the functions and clinical significance of COL9A2.
