Col16a1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Predicted to enable integrin binding activity. Predicted to be an extracellular matrix structural constituent conferring tensile strength. Acts upstream of or within cellular response to amino acid stimulus. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Is expressed in several structures, including genitourinary system; nervous system; retina layer; and trunk mesenchyme. Orthologous to human COL16A1 (collagen type XVI alpha 1 chain).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Col16a1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
