| Tissue Specificity | Highest expression in tendons, perichondrium, skin, cornea, sclera, blood vessels, and periosteum. |
| Post Translational Modifications | The triple-helical tail is stabilized by disulfide bonds at each end. Hydroxylation on proline residues within the sequence motif, GXPG, is most likely to be 4-hydroxy as this fits the requirement for 4-hydroxylation in vertebrates. O-glycosylation of isoform 2.glycosaminoglycan of chondroitin-sulfate type. |
| Function | Type XII collagen interacts with type I collagen-containing fibrils, the COL1 domain could be associated with the surface of the fibrils, and the COL2 and NC3 domains may be localized in the perifibrillar matrix. |
