Cartilage associated protein is a protein that in humans is encoded by the CRTAP gene.

Structure and function

The protein encoded by this gene is similar to the chicken and mouse CRTAP genes. The encoded protein is a scaffolding protein that may influence the activity of at least one member of the cytohesin/ARNO family in response to specific cellular stimuli.

CRTAP forms a tight protein complex with two other enzymes involved in post-translational modification: Leprecan (P3H1) and PPIB. In this complex, CRTAP acts as a collagen-binding site, capturing substrates for subsequent enzymatic processing by P3H1 and PPIB. Notably, CRTAP exhibits a folding pattern similar to the N-terminal domain of P3H1.

Clinical significance

Mutations in the CRTAP gene are associated with osteogenesis imperfecta, types VII and IIB, a connective tissue disorder characterized by bone fragility and low bone mass.
