Specifications
Target Information
Chicken Collagen Alpha-1(XIV) Chain (COL14A1) is a member of the FACIT (fibril-associated collagens with interrupted triple helices) collagen family. It is involved in the regulation of fibrillogenesis and interacts with the surface of interstitial collagen fibrils via COL1. This protein is likely associated with the surface of interstitial collagen fibrils, where it may serve as a rigid arm protruding into the extracellular space to interact with other matrix molecules or cell surface receptors. In chickens, COL14A1 is expressed in various tissues and is crucial for maintaining tissue integrity and regulating cell behavior. Abnormal expression of COL14A1 has been implicated in fibrosis and cancer, where it may influence tissue remodeling and tumor progression.
