collagen triple helix repeat containing 1

Symbol

CTHRC1 (may also be known as: None)

Organism

Human

Description

This locus encodes a protein that may play a role in the cellular response to arterial injury through involvement in vascular remodeling. Mutations at this locus have been associated with Barrett esophagus and esophageal adenocarcinoma. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2012]
