Comments
  • FUNCTION: Type II collagen is specific for cartilaginous tissues. It is essential for the normal embryonic development of the skeleton, for linear growth and for the ability of cartilage to resist compressive forces (By similarity).
  • SUBUNIT: Homotrimers of alpha 1(II) chains (By similarity).
  • SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix (By similarity).
  • PTM: Prolines at the third position of the tripeptide repeating unit (G-X-Y) are hydroxylated in some or all of the chains (By similarity).
  • MISCELLANEOUS: These protein fragments where extracted from a 68 millions years old fossil. The tryptic peptides required multiple purification steps in order to eliminate contaminants and to increase the concentration of peptidic material.
  • SIMILARITY: Belongs to the fibrillar collagen family.
  • SIMILARITY: Contains 1 VWFC domain.
