Incomplete processing of type II procollagen by a rat chondrosarcoma cell lineR J Fernandes
Department of Orthopaedics, University of Washington, Seattle 98195, USA
Eur J Biochem 247:620-4. 1997..The findings indicate that the RCS-LTC cell line fails to express an active type II procollagen N-proteinase and, therefore, offers a useful culture system in which to study the role of N-propeptide removal in fibrillogenesis...
Collagen XI chain misassembly in cartilage of the chondrodysplasia (cho) mouseRussell J Fernandes

The elastin-like protein matrix of lamprey branchial cartilage is cross-linked by lysyl pyridinolineR J Fernandes
Department of Orthopaedics, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington, 98195, USA
Biochem Biophys Res Commun 261:635-40. 1999..Pyridinoline cross-links are considered to be characteristic of collagen, so their presence in an elastin-like protein in a primitive cartilage poses evolutionary questions about the tissue, the protein, and the cross-linking mechanism...
Recent developments in cartilage research: matrix biology of the collagen II/IX/XI heterofibril networkD R Eyre
University of Washington, Orthopaedic Research Laboratories, Box 356500, Seattle 98195 6500, USA
Biochem Soc Trans 30:893-9. 2002..From the structure of the cartilage collagen heteropolymer we also predict a pivotal role for telopeptide (non-triple-helical) proteolytic cleavages in the remodelling and degradation of collagen fibrils...

Department of Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine, University of Washington School of Medicine Harborview Medical Center, Seattle, Washington 98104, USA
Wound Repair Regen 14:398-404. 2006..This process appears spatially associated with Msx1 expression. Msx1 expression appears increased at the regrowing tip of 57-day digits by 4 days after amputation...
CRTAP is required for prolyl 3- hydroxylation and mutations cause recessive osteogenesis imperfectaRoy Morello
Department of Molecular and Human Genetics, Baylor College of Medicine, Houston, TX 77030, USA
Cell 127:291-304. 2006..In humans, CRTAP mutations are associated with the clinical spectrum of recessive osteogenesis imperfecta, including the type II and VII forms. Hence, dysregulation of prolyl 3-hydroxylation is a mechanism for connective tissue disease...
