The COL4A3 gene provides instructions for making one piece of a protein called collagen IV. Specifically, this gene makes the alpha3(IV) chain of collagen IV. This chain combines with two other types of alpha (IV) chains (the alpha4 and alpha5 chains) to make alpha345(IV) collagen molecules. These molecules attach to each other to form complex protein networks that make up a large portion of basement membranes, which are thin, sheet-like structures that separate and support cells in many tissues. Alpha345(IV) collagen networks play an especially important role in the basement membranes of the kidney, inner ear, and eye.
