Collagen
Crystal structure of
collagen which has
three identical helices
shown in blue, green,
and purple. Each helix
consists of 18 residues.

collagen structure.
Sequence of each helix: XGPXGPXGPX GPRGQXGV with X=any amino
acid
*Structures made using Rasmol and pdb file 2WUH
Structure
• Composed of three
identical, left-handed
helices
• 3 amino acids per turn
• Sequence: Gly-X-Y
• Predominantly X=proline,
Y=proline or hydroxyproline
• Contains approximately 33%
glycine, 30%
proline/hydroxyproline, 37%
other peptides.
Importance of Glycine Residues
• Stacks along inside of
collagen molecule (shown
in red)
• Glycine residues are
important for maintaining
tight turns (3 residues per
turn).
• Provides flexibility of
structure
Sequence Alignment
-Portion of collagen molecules from a human, mouse, chicken, and dog.
-Shaded amino acids are conserved.
-Black=identical amino acids, Gray=similar amino acids, Blue=glycine, Pink=proline
Fibrils
Collagen molecules stack together to form fibrils. Above is an electron
micrograph of several fibrils. One molecule of collagen from these fibrils
are 3000Å in length and 15Å thick. The gaps formed between the
collagen molecules line up every 4 molecules, causing striations that are
640Å.
Structure Stability
• Intramolecular Crosslinks:
covalent bonds between
residues inside a collagen
molecule
• Intermolecular Crosslinks:
covalent bonds of residues
on different collagen
molecules
Structure Stability
• Crosslinks usually occur between lysine, hydroxylysine, and
histidine residues
Function
• Most abundant protein in humans and other vertebrates
(comprises about 25-35% of total protein in the body)
• Provides flexibility/stability & comprises most of bones,
connective tissues, tendons, ligaments, skin, etc
• Composes corneas
• Roles in cell adhesion and signaling
– E.g. Human discoidin domain receptors DDR1 and DDR2
are activated by collagen
• Can be used for cosmetic and burn surgery
• Denatures to form gelatin to use in food products,
pharmaceuticals, photography, and cosmetics.
Scurvy
• Occurs when vitamin C deficiency
• Vitamin C is a cofactor for enzymes prolyl and lysyl
hydroxylase which hydroxylate proline and lysine.
• Proline and lysine need to be hydroxylated for
crosslinking and hydrogen bonding (and therefore,
stabilizing collagen).
• Leads to weakened connective tissues and capillaries.
• Symptoms: bleeding of gums and bone/joint tissues,
bruising, hemorrhages, fatigue, yellowing skin.
Osteogenesis Imperfecta
•
•
•
•
Genetic disorder that causes fragile bones, low bone mass, and
problems with connective tissues (if person with disease survives at all)
Usually caused by mutation of two genes for collagen I
The changes in coding cause a different amino acid to be substituted
for a glycine residue
Depending on the amino acid substituted, can be mild or lethal.
Osteogenesis Imperfecta
Mild effect: Alanine
substituted for a glycine
•
• Moderately severe effect:
Cysteine, Serine, or Glutamic
Acid substituted for a glycine
• Lethal effect: Arginine,
Cysteine , Valine, Serine, or
Aspartic Acid substituted for a
glycine
*Pictures:Patient has cysteine in place of
a glycine residue.
