This observation is interpreted as indicative of an increasing degree of degradation of partially hydroxylated collagen to diffusible peptides.
This suggests a mode of action for the synthetic peptides which substantially overlaps, but which is not entirely identical with, that of native collagen.
Model peptides can be used to clarify the details of normal collagen folding and the consequences of the interruption of that folding by a Gly substitution.
The methods outlined here provide a reliable means by which identifiable type IV collagen peptides can be isolated.
