Plasmid-Encoded Outer Membrane Protein YadA Mediates Specific Binding of Enteropathogenic Yersiniae to Various Types of Collagen [PDF]
, 1992 The plasmid-encoded outer membrane protein YadA of enteropathogenic yersiniae is associated with pathogenicity. Recently, collagen binding of YadA-positive yersiniae was reported without detailed characterization (L. Emödy, J. Heesemann, H. Wolf-Watz, M.

Peroxidasin-mediated crosslinking of collagen IV is independent of NADPH oxidases
Redox Biology, 2018 Collagen IV is a major component of the basement membrane in epithelial tissues. The NC1 domains of collagen IV protomers are covalently linked together through sulfilimine bonds, the formation of which is catalyzed by peroxidasin.

Specifics of type IV collagen expression in basal cell skin carcinoma
Alʹmanah Kliničeskoj Mediciny, 2020 Rationale: Type IV collagen is the main component of the basal membrane ensuring its integrity. Basal membrane destruction is associated with absent type IV collagen expression being directly related to an increased tumor invasion risk.

Mechanical properties of collagen fibrils [PDF]
, 2007 The formation of collagen fibers from staggered subfibrils still lacks a universally accepted model. Determining the mechanical properties of single collagen fibrils ( diameter 50 - 200 nm) provides new insights into collagen structure. In this work, the
