An interactive triple-helical collagen builder
UNLABELLED To facilitate the building of triple-helical polypeptide structures, we provide an interactive, platform-independent Tcl/Tk script. User specified amino acid sequences are parsed to obtain localized melting temperature estimates corresponding to helical propensity. These propensities may be graphically examined prior to their automated use in combination with two separate statistical...
متن کاملNon-Triple Helical Form of Type IV Collagen α1 Chain
Type IV collagen with a triple-helical structure composed of three α chains is a major component of basement membrane. Previously, we reported that non-triple helical form of type IV collagen α1 chain (NTHα1(IV)) was isolated from human placenta and the culture media of human cells. In the present study, we report on the localization of NTH α1(IV) with a monoclonal antibody #370, exclusively re...
متن کاملHydrolysis of triple-helical collagen peptide models by matrix metalloproteinases.
The matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family has been implicated in the process of a variety of diseases such as arthritis, atherosclerosis, and tumor cell metastasis. To study the mechanisms of MMP action on collagenous substrates, we have constructed homotrimeric triple-helical peptide (THP) models of the collagenase cleavage sites in types I and II collagen. The THPs incorporate either the alph...
متن کاملCollagenase unwinds triple-helical collagen prior to peptide bond hydrolysis.
Breakdown of triple-helical interstitial collagens is essential in embryonic development, organ morphogenesis and tissue remodelling and repair. Aberrant collagenolysis may result in diseases such as arthritis, cancer, atherosclerosis, aneurysm and fibrosis. In vertebrates, it is initiated by collagenases belonging to the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family. The three-dimensional structure of...
متن کاملStructure-property-function relationships in triple helical collagen hydrogels
In order to establish defined biomimetic systems, type I collagen was functionalised with 1,3-Phenylenediacetic acid (Ph) as aromatic, bifunctional segment. Following investigation on molecular organization and macroscopic properties, material functionalities, i.e. degradability and bioactivity, were addressed, aiming at elucidating the potential of this collagen system as mineralization templa...
