Characterization of chain association in collagen types XII and XIII and other biochemical features of type XIII collagen using baculovirus-directed insect cell expression

Abstract Type XII minicollagen chain association was studied using baculovirus-directed insect cell expression. Since insect cells contain low endogenous prolyl 4-hydroxylase activity, the mechanism of the effect of prolyl hydroxylation on trimer formation in this collagen could be studied directly...
