Collagen cross-linking in corneal scar formation

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Protein Structure, 1975
Abstract The collagen of rabbit corneal scar tissue contains a pattern of reducible radioactive cross-links marked by a high content of glycosylated dihydroxylysinonorleucine. The presence of the glycosylated aldimine cross-link may reflect differences in the distribution of carbohydrate in scar collagen.
