Target Information
Canine collagen alpha-2(I) chain is a component of type I collagen, which is essential for the structural integrity of various connective tissues in dogs, including skin, tendons, and bones. This chain, along with two alpha-1(I) chains, forms the triple helix structure of type I collagen, providing strength and support to these tissues. It plays a critical role in tissue development, repair, and maintenance, and its proper function is vital for overall canine health. Mutations in the gene encoding this protein can lead to connective tissue disorders in dogs, similar to osteogenesis imperfecta in humans.
