Determination of Hydroxyproline in Bone Collagen: Potential Application as a Biomarker for Bone Diseases
Hydroxyproline (Hyp), a non-proteinogenic amino acid is a component of the organic material in bone. It has been used for 14C-dating of bone and the measurement of Hyp could be used as a biomarker in bone metabolism. Hydroxyproline is a component of collagen, the main structural protein in bone.
