BMC Research Notes, 2021 Objective Small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) analysis is a sensitive way of determining the ultrastructure of collagen in tissues. Little is known about how parameters measured by SAXS are affected by preservatives commonly used to prevent autolysis. We

Stabilization and anomalous hydration of collagen fibril under heating. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 BACKGROUND: Type I collagen is the most common protein among higher vertebrates. It forms the basis of fibrous connective tissues (tendon, chord, skin, bones) and ensures mechanical stability and strength of these tissues.

Dinosaur peptides suggest mechanisms of protein survival. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Eleven collagen peptide sequences recovered from chemical extracts of dinosaur bones were mapped onto molecular models of the vertebrate collagen fibril derived from extant taxa.

Articular cartilage collagen: an irreplaceable framework? [PDF]
European Cells & Materials, 2006 Adult articular cartilage by dry weight is two-thirds collagen. The collagen has a unique molecular phenotype. The nascent type II collagen fibril is a heteropolymer, with collagen IX molecules covalently linked to the surface and collagen XI forming the

Regional fibronectin and collagen fibril co-assembly directs cell proliferation and microtissue morphology. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The extracellular matrix protein, fibronectin stimulates cells to self-assemble into three-dimensional multicellular structures by a mechanism that requires the cell-dependent conversion of soluble fibronectin molecules into insoluble fibrils ...
