A fibrillar collagen gene, Col11a1, is essential for skeletal morphogenesis
Mice that are homozygous for the autosomal recessive chondrodysplasia (cho) mutation die at birth with abnormalities in cartilage of limbs, ribs, mandible, and trachea. Limb bones of newborn cho/cho mice are wider at the metaphyses than normal bones and only about half the normal length. By linkage analysis, the cho gene and the gene encoding the alpha 1 (XI) chain of cartilage collagen XI were...
متن کاملThe Fibrillar Collagen Family
Collagens, or more precisely collagen-based extracellular matrices, are often considered as a metazoan hallmark. Among the collagens, fibrillar collagens are present from sponges to humans, and are involved in the formation of the well-known striated fibrils. In this review we discuss the different steps in the evolution of this protein family, from the formation of an ancestral fibrillar colla...
متن کاملProteoglycan-fibrillar collagen interactions.
The future of biochemistry lies in understanding how single gene products associate and function together. Interactions in connective tissues, including those between the proteoglycans and collagens are especially piquant, evolutionarily conserved and physiologically significant. Connective tissues (e.g. skin, tendon, blood vessels, etc.) are systems of insoluble fibrils and soluble polymers wh...
متن کاملThe Demonstration of Alkaline Phosphatase in the Electron Microscope
At the present time, attempts are being made in many laboratories to adapt histochemical methods for electron microscopy (1-4, 6, 8, 13, 15, 16, 20-22) and thus localize in greater detail sites of enzymatic activity within the cell, and Barrnett and Palade (5) have recently discussed the problems involved. We asked ourselves whether the well known reaction of Gomori and Takamatsu might be suita...
متن کاملElectron Microscope Studies of Cells by the Method of Replicas
The method of replicas has been applied to the study with the electron microscope of blood cells and bacteria. The results indicate that the method can reveal details of intracellular structures. Nuclei can be perceived, and also cytoplasmic bodies such as mitochondria and vacuoles.
