Mini-Collagens in Hydra Nematocytes [PDF]
, 1991 We have isolated and characterized four collagen-related c-DNA clones (N-COL 1, N-COL 2, N-COL 3, N-COL 4) that are highly expressed in developing nematocytes in hydra.

The recognition of collagen and triple-helical toolkit peptides by MMP-13: sequence specificity for binding and cleavage. [PDF]
, 2014 Remodeling of collagen by matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) is crucial to tissue homeostasis and repair. MMP-13 is a collagenase with a substrate preference for collagen II over collagens I and III.

Differential Expression of Collagen Type V and XI α-1 in Human Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms [PDF]
, 2009 Background—The molecular mechanisms leading to ascending thoracic aortic aneurysms (ATAAs) remain unknown. We hypothesized that alterations in expression levels of specific fibrillar collagens occur during the aneurysmal process. Methods—Surgical samples
