Background:

COL4A1, also known as ICH or Collagen alpha-1(IV), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL4A1 gene. It is mapped to 13q34. This gene encodes the major type IV alpha collagen chain of basement membranes. Like the other members of the type IV collagen gene family, this gene is organized in a head-to-head conformation with another type IV collagen gene so that each gene pair shares a common promoter. COL4A1 binds to alpha-1/beta-1 integrin and inhibits migration, proliferation, and tube formation by endothelial cells. It is also a potential therapeutic candidate for targeting tumor angiogenesis.
