Description

Human collagen type II is the major collagen of the extracellular matrix of mature articular cartilage. Together with the other cartilage collagens, the highly cross-linked fibrils of triple helical type II collagen molecules form a fibrillar network that confers tensile strength to articular surfaces. In addition to its structural function, COL2A1 is also an important extracellular signaling molecule, which can regulate the proliferation, metabolism and differentiation of chondrocytes similar to soluble signals. It is essential for the normal embryonic development of the skeleton, for linear growth and for the ability of cartilage to resist compressive forces.
