| Tissue Specificity | Highly expressed in pancreas and muscle. Isoform 1 and isoform 2 are expressed in the majority of the examined cell types. Isoform 2 is specifically expressed in skin, lung, dura and aorta. |
| Post Translational Modifications | |
| Function | Forms hydroxylysine residues in -Xaa-Lys-Gly- sequences in collagens. These hydroxylysines serve as sites of attachment for carbohydrate units and are essential for the stability of the intermolecular collagen cross-links. |
