Sustained Induction of Collagen Synthesis by TGF-β Requires Regulated Intramembrane Proteolysis of CREB3L1
CREB3L1 (cAMP response element binding protein 3-like 1), a transcription factor synthesized as a membrane-bound precursor and activated through Regulated Intramembrane Proteolysis (RIP), is essential for collagen production by osteoblasts during bone development. Here, we show that TGF-β (transforming growth factor-β), a cytokine known to stimulate production of collagen during wound healing a...
متن کاملNereis cuticle collagen. Isolation and properties of a large fragment resistant to proteolysis by bacterial collagenase.
Native cuticle collagen, obtained from Nereis virens, was incubated with purified bacterial collagenase (EC 3.4.4.19). The kinetics of proteolysis were monitored by viscometry, in parallel with similar digestions of calf skin collagen. Comparison of the kinetics of digestion of the two collagens, at similar enzyme to substrate ratios (w/w), showed that the native cuticle collagen was relatively...
متن کاملInterstitial collagenase is a Brownian ratchet driven by proteolysis of collagen.
We show that activated collagenase (MMP-1) moves processively on the collagen fibril. The mechanism of movement is a biased diffusion with the bias component dependent on the proteolysis of its substrate, not adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis. Inactivation of the enzyme by a single amino acid residue substitution in the active center eliminates the bias without noticeable effect on rate o...
متن کاملComparison between Thermal Hydrolysis and Enzymatic Proteolysis Processes for the Preparation of Tilapia Skin Collagen Hydrolysates
Wang W., Li Z., Liu J.-Z., Wang Y.-J., Liu S.-H., Sun M. (2013): Comparison between thermal hydrolysis and enzymatic proteolysis processes for the preparation of tilapia skin collagen hydrolysates. Czech J. Food Sci., 31: 1–4 The tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) skin hydrolysate was produced by thermal or enzymatic hydrolysis processes. Several product characteristics were studied such as the av...
متن کاملVEGF-A stimulates podosome-mediated collagen-IV proteolysis in microvascular endothelial cells.
Podosomes are dynamic cell-matrix contact structures that combine several key abilities, including adhesion, matrix degradation and mechanosensing. These actin-based cytoskeletal structures have been mostly studied in monocytic cells, but much less is known about those formed in other lineages. In this study, we characterise podosomes in capillary-derived microvascular endothelial cells. We ide...
