The collagen family.

Cold Spring Harbor perspectives in biology - 1 Jan 2011

Ricard-Blum Sylvie

Abstract excerpt

Collagens are the most abundant proteins in mammals. The collagen family comprises 28 members that contain at least one triple-helical domain. Collagens are deposited in the extracellular matrix where most of them form supramolecular assemblies. Four collagens are type II membrane proteins that also exist in a soluble form released from the cell surface by shedding. Collagens play structural roles and contribute...
