COL3A1 also known as Collagen III is a crucial component of the extracellular matrix. COL3A1 plays a crucial role in the structural integrity of connective tissues, particularly in tissues that require flexibility and resilience, such as skin, blood vessels, and internal organs. COL3A1 unique triple helix structure allows for the formation of fibrils that provide tensile strength, while COL3A1 ability to interact with other collagen types and extracellular matrix components is vital for maintaining tissue architecture and function. Additionally, COL3A1 is often involved in wound healing and tissue repair processes, making COL3A1 an important target for research in fibrosis and other connective tissue disorders.
