Abstract excerpt
The amino- and carboxyl-terminal globular domains of type VI collagen are composed of several homologous modules similar to the type A collagen-binding modules present in von Willebrand factor. The human alpha 3(VI) chain that contributes most of the amino-terminal globule appears heterogeneous in size as a result of alternative splicing of two exons (Stokes D. G., Saitta, B., Timpl, R., and Chu, M.-L. (1991) J....
