title: Collagen, type IX, alpha 1
text: Collagen alpha-1(IX) chain is a protein that in humans is encoded by the COL9A1 gene. This gene encodes one of the three alpha chains of type IX collagen, a collagen component of hyaline cartilage. Type IX collagen is usually found in tissues containing type II collagen, a fibrillar collagen. Studies in knockout mice have shown that synthesis of the alpha 1 chain is essential for assembly of type IX collagen molecules, a heterotrimeric molecule, and that lack of type IX collagen is associated wi
