The alpha 2(VIII) collagen gene. A novel member of the short chain collagen family located on the human chromosome 1.

1 Apr 1991

Abstract excerpt

Type VIII collagen is a major component of Descemet's membrane, the specialized basement membrane of corneal endothelial cells. Sequence analysis of a cDNA isolated from a library made with mRNA from rabbit corneal endothelial cells has indicated that type VIII molecules contain a polypeptide chain, alpha 1(VIII), consisting of a short triple-helical domain of 454 amino acid residues flanked by non-triple-helical...
