== Disease ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CO4A5_HUMAN CO4A5_HUMAN] X-linked diffuse leiomyomatosis - Alport syndrome;X-linked Alport syndrome. The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.  Deletions covering the N-terminal regions of COL4A5 and COL4A6, which are localized in a head-to-head manner, are found in the chromosome Xq22.3 centromeric deletion syndrome. This results in a phenotype with features of diffuse leiomyomatosis and Alport syndrome (DL-ATS).
== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/CO4A5_HUMAN CO4A5_HUMAN] Type IV collagen is the major structural component of glomerular basement membranes (GBM), forming a 'chicken-wire' meshwork together with laminins, proteoglycans and entactin/nidogen.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Basement membranes are extracellular structures of epithelia and endothelia that have collagen IV scaffolds of triple alpha-chain helical protomers that associate end-to-end, forming networks. The molecular mechanisms by which the noncollagenous C-terminal domains of alpha-chains direct the selection and assembly of the alpha1alpha2alpha1 and alpha3alpha4alpha5 hetero-oligomers found in vivo remain obscure. Autoantibodies against the noncollagenous domains of the alpha3alpha4alpha5 hexamer or mutations therein cause Goodpasture's or Alport's syndromes, respectively. To gain further insight into oligomer-assembly mechanisms as well as into Goodpasture's and Alport's syndromes, crystal structures of non-collagenous domains produced by recombinant methods were determined. The spontaneous formation of canonical homohexamers (dimers of trimers) of these domains of the alpha1, alpha3 and alpha5 chains was shown and the components of the Goodpasture's disease epitopes were viewed. Crystal structures of the alpha2 and alpha4 non-collagenous domains generated by recombinant methods were also determined. These domains spontaneously form homo-oligomers that deviate from the canonical architectures since they have a higher number of subunits (dimers of tetramers and of hexamers, respectively). Six flexible structural motifs largely explain the architectural variations. These findings provide insight into noncollagenous domain folding, while supporting the in vivo operation of extrinsic mechanisms for restricting the self-assembly of noncollagenous domains. Intriguingly, Alport's syndrome missense mutations concentrate within the core that nucleates the folding of the noncollagenous domain, suggesting that this syndrome, when owing to missense changes, is a folding disorder that is potentially amenable to pharmacochaperone therapy.
