This gene encodes the pro-alpha1 chain of type I collagen, a triple helix composed of two alpha1 chains and one alpha2 chain. Type I collagen is a fibril-forming collagen found in most connective tissues and is abundant in bone, cornea, dermis, and tendon. Mutations in this gene are associated with osteogenesis imperfecta types I–IV, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome type VIIA and the classic type, Caffey disease, and idiopathic osteoporosis. Reciprocal translocations between chromosomes 17 and 22, where this gene and the platelet-derived growth factor beta gene are located, are associated with a specific type of dermatofibrosarcoma protuberans resulting from unregulated expression of the growth factor. Two transcripts generated through alternative polyadenylation signals have been identified for this gene. Provided by R. Dalgleish, February 2008.
