Collagen, type XXV, alpha 1, also known as COL25A1, is a human gene.[1]

COL25A1 is a brain-specific membrane-bound collagen. Proteolytic processing releases CLAC, a soluble form of COL25A1 containing the extracellular collagen domains that associates with senile plaques in Alzheimer disease (AD; MIM 104300) brains (Osada et al., 2005).[supplied by OMIM][1]
