The structure of human collagen type IX and its organization in fetal and infant cartilage fibrils 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Human collagen type IX was isolated from the media of organ cultures of fetal or infant hyaline cartilage. It consisted of three distinct, disulfide-bonded polypeptides of 115, 84, and 72 kDa, respectively. Digestion with chondroitinase ABC reduced the apparent molecular mass of the 115-kDa chain to about 65 kDa demonstrating that also human collagen type IX is a proteoglycan. In the electron microscope, the molecule had a rigid rod-like structure with characteristic kinks and with a globular domain at one end. Digestion of human collagen type IX with pepsin leads to somewhat heterogeneous fragments. Affinity-purified antibodies to the mixture of fragments specifically reacted with the fragment HMW without cross-reaction with chicken HMW. LMW of both species were recognized to the same low extent. Mechanically generated fibril fragments from human fetal cartilage were heterogeneous in diameter. Significantly, they could be immunostained for collagen type IX in a D-periodic pattern and regardless of the fibril diameter. Some fibrils were poorly labeled, again independently of the diameter. Therefore, the role of collagen type IX in cartilage probably is not to control directly the lateral growth during fibrillogenesis but rather to stabilize the fibril network. 相似文献

Independent deposition of collagen types II and IX at epithelial-mesenchymal interfaces 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Previous studies have demonstrated the presence of type II collagen (in mature chickens predominantly a 'cartilage-specific' collagen) in a variety of embryonic extracellular matrices that separate epithelia from mesenchyme. In an immunohistochemical study using collagen type-specific monoclonal antibodies, we asked whether type IX collagen, another 'cartilage-specific' collagen, is coexpressed along with type II at such interfaces. We confirmed that, in the matrix underlying a variety of cranial ectodermal derivatives and along the ventrolateral surfaces of neuroepithelia, type II collagen is codistributed with collagen types I and IV. Type IX collagen, however, was undetectable at those sites. We observed immunoreactivity for type IX collagen only within the notochordal sheath, where it first appeared at a later stage than did collagen types I and II. We also observed type II collagen (without type IX) beneath the dorsolateral ectoderm at stage 16; this correlates with the period during which limb ectoderm has been reported to induce the mesoderm to become chondrogenic. Finally, in older hind limbs we observed subepithelial type II collagen that was not associated with subsequent chondrogenesis, but appeared to parallel the formation of feathers and scales in the developing limb. These observations suggest that the deposition of collagen types II and IX into interfacial matrices is regulated independently, and that induction of mesenchymal chondrogenesis by such matrices does not involve type IX collagen. Subepithelial type IX collagen deposition, on the other hand, correlates with the assembly of a thick multilaminar fibrillar matrix, as present in the notochordal sheath and, as shown previously, in the corneal primary stroma. 相似文献

Acquisition of type IX collagen by the developing avian primary corneal stroma and vitreous 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Previous investigations from our laboratory and others have demonstrated that type II collagen, once thought to be a cartilage-specific molecule, is also a component of both the primary corneal stroma and the vitreous of embryonic chickens. In the present immunohistochemical study we have examined the expression in these embryonic matrices of another "cartilage-specific" collagen, type IX, along with type II. In the cornea, type IX collagen is in the primary stroma, but is not detectable in the mature, secondary stroma. Even within the primary stroma this collagen has a brief, transitory existence. It first appears in the peripheral stroma at the time the endothelial cells begin to migrate along its posterior surface, and spreads throughout the stroma during the following 24-36 hr. The epitopes on type IX collagen then suddenly become undetectable just before this matrix swells and becomes populated by the periocular mesenchymal cells (future keratocytes). In comparison, collagen type II (along with type I) is present in the stroma before and long after these events. Deposition of immunodetectable type IX collagen in the developing corneal stroma thus seems to be independent of type II. In the vitreous, we observed type IX collagen along with type II as soon as authentic vitreous could be identified and at all subsequent stages of development. In this tissue, therefore, the expression of collagen types IX and II appears to be coordinate. 相似文献

Collagen has found use as a scaffold material for tissue engineering as well as a coating material for implants with a view to enhancing osseointegration through mimicry of the bone extracellular matrix in vivo. The aim of this study was to compare the collagen types I, II, and III with regard to their ability to bind the small leucine-rich proteoglycans (SLRPs) decorin and biglycan during fibrillogenesis in vitro in phosphate buffer. In addition, the influence of SLRPs on the proportion of collagen molecules incorporated into fibrils during fibrillogenesis in vitro at high and low ionic strength was investigated, as were their effects on the morphology of collagen fibrils and the speed of fibrillogenesis. Considerably more biglycan than decorin was bound by all three collagen types. Collagen II bound significantly more SLRPs in fibrils than collagen I and III. Decorin and biglycan decreased the proportion of collagen molecules of all three collagen types incorporated into fibrils in similar fashion. Biglycan affected neither fibril diameter nor the speed of fibrillogenesis. Decorin reduced the fibril diameter of all three collagen types. The differences in SLRP-binding ability between collagen types could be of significance when selecting collagen type and/or SLRPs as scaffold materials for tissue engineering or implant coatings. 相似文献

Type IX collagen functions in covalent cross-linkage to type II collagen in cartilage (Eyre, D. R., Apone, S., Wu, J. J., Ericsson, L. H., and Walsh, K. A. (1987) FEBS Lett. 220, 337-341). To understand this molecular relationship better, an analysis of all cross-linking sites labeled by [3H]borohydride was undertaken using the protein prepared from fetal bovine cartilage. Sequence analysis of tryptic peptides containing the 3H-labeled cross-links showed that each of the chains of type IX collagen, alpha 1(IX), alpha 2(IX), and alpha 3(IX), contained a site of cross-linking at the amino terminus of the COL2 triple-helix to which the alpha 1(II)N-telopeptide could bond. The alpha 3(IX)COL2 domain alone also had an attachment site for the alpha 1(II)C-telopeptide. The distance between the alpha 1(II)N-telopeptide and alpha 1(II)C-telopeptide interaction sites, 137 residues, is equal to the length of the hole zone (0.6D) in a type II collagen fibril. This implies an antiparallel type II to type IX cross-linking relationship. Peptide analysis also revealed an unknown amino acid sequence linked to the COL2 cross-linking domains in both the alpha 1(IX) and alpha 3(IX) chains. Using antibodies to this novel peptide, its origin in the collagen alpha 3(IX)NC1 domain was established. In summary, the results confirm extensive covalent cross-linking between type IX and type II collagen molecules and reveal the existence of type IX-type IX bonding. These data provide a molecular basis for the proposed function of type IX collagen as a critical contributor to the mechanical stability and resistance to swelling of the collagen type II fibril framework of cartilage. 相似文献

Susceptibility of cartilage collagens type II, IX, X, and XI to human synovial collagenase and neutrophil elastase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
S J Gadher D R Eyre V C Duance S F Wotton L W Heck T M Schmid D E Woolley 《European journal of biochemistry》1988,175(1):1-7
The action of purified rheumatoid synovial collagenase and human neutrophil elastase on the cartilage collagen types II, IX, X and XI was examined. At 25 degrees C, collagenase attacked type II and type X (45-kDa pepsin-solubilized) collagens to produce specific products reflecting one and at least two cleavages respectively. At 35 degrees C, collagenase completely degraded the type II collagen molecule to small peptides whereas a large fragment of the type X molecule was resistant to further degradation. In contrast, collagen type IX (native, intact and pepsin-solubilized type M) and collagen type XI were resistant to collagenase attack at both 25 degrees C and 35 degrees C even in the presence of excess enzyme. Mixtures of type II collagen with equimolar amounts of either type IX or XI did not affect the rate at which the former was degraded by collagenase at 25 degrees C. Purified neutrophil elastase, shown to be functionally active against soluble type III collagen, had no effect on collagen type II at 25 degrees C or 35 degrees C. At 25 degrees C collagen types IX (pepsin-solubilized type M) and XI were also resistant to elastase, but at 35 degrees C both were susceptible to degradation with type IX being reduced to very small peptides. Collagen type X (45-kDa pepsin-solubilized) was susceptible to elastase attack at 25 degrees C and 35 degrees C as judged by the production of specific products that corresponded closely with those produced by collagenase. Although synovial collagenase failed to degrade collagen types IX and XI, all the cartilage collagen species examined were degraded at 35 degrees C by conditioned culture medium from IL1-activated human articular chondrocytes. Thus chondrocytes have the potential to catabolise each cartilage collagen species, but the specificity and number of the chondrocyte-derived collagenase(s) has yet to be resolved. 相似文献

The tissue distribution of type II and type IX collagen in 17-d-old chicken embryo was studied by immunofluorescence using polyclonal antibodies against type II collagen and a peptic fragment of type IX collagen (HMW), respectively. Both proteins were found only in cartilage where they were co-distributed. They occurred uniformly throughout the extracellular matrix, i.e., without distinction between pericellular, territorial, and interterritorial matrices. Tissues that undergo endochondral bone formation contained type IX collagen, whereas periosteal and membranous bones were negative. The thin collagenous fibrils in cartilage consisted of type II collagen as determined by immunoelectron microscopy. Type IX collagen was associated with the fibrils but essentially was restricted to intersections of the fibrils. These observations suggested that type IX collagen contributes to the stabilization of the network of thin fibers of the extracellular matrix of cartilage by interactions of its triple helical domains with several fibrils at or close to their intersections. 相似文献

The self-assembly of pepsin-extracted types I, II, and III collagen was studied to determine how differences in the triple-helical structure between collagen types influence in vitro collagen fibrillogenesis. Collagen types I, II, and III were extracted and purified from bovine sources, and were studied in solution by laser light scattering, pH titration, and determination of turbidity-time curves. The molecular weights were between 280,000 and 289,000, while the translational diffusion coefficients and particle scattering factors at 175.5 degrees were consistent with those expected for single collagen molecules. Titration of collagen types I, II, and III between pH 7.0 and 2.0 using HCl indicated that type I collagen had the most titratable carboxylic groups with type II and III having significantly fewer titratable groups. The self-assembly of these collagens was studied in vitro in phosphate-buffered saline. The time course and extent of fibril formation were studied turbidimetrically, and were found to be dependent on collagen type. Apparent rate constants were determined for both the lag and growth phases of fibril formation. The rates of both phases were greater for type III than for type I collagen, with the rates for type II collagen being intermediate. The extent of fibril formation was based on the turbidity per unit concentration (specific turbidity) extrapolated to zero concentration (intrinsic turbidity), which was found to be greater for type I than for type III collagen. Type II collagen had the smallest intrinsic turbidity. The specific and intrinsic turbidity values were consistent with the relative fibril diameters seen in dermis and cartilage by transmission electron microscopy. These observations indicate that helix-helix interactions are important in the regulation of the rate and extent of collagen fibrillogenesis and may be involved in the determination of fibril structure. 相似文献

From a study to understand the mechanism of covalent interaction between collagen types II and IX, we present experimental evidence for a previously unrecognized molecular site of cross-linking. The location relative to previously defined cross-linking sites predicts a specific manner of interaction and folding of collagen IX on the surface of nascent collagen II fibrils. The initial evidence came from Western blot analysis of type IX collagen extracted by pepsin from fetal human cartilage, which showed a molecular species that had properties indicating an adduct between the alpha1(II) chain and the C-terminal domain (COL1) of type IX collagen. A similar component was isolated from bovine cartilage in sufficient quantity to confirm this identity by N-terminal sequence analysis. Using an antibody that recognized the putative cross-linking sequence at the C terminus of the alpha1(IX) chain, cross-linked peptides were isolated by immunoaffinity chromatography from proteolytic digests of human cartilage collagen. They were characterized by immunochemistry, N-terminal sequence analysis, and mass spectrometry. The results establish a link between a lysine near the C terminus (in the NC1 domain) of alpha1(IX) and the known cross-linking lysine at residue 930 of the alpha1(II) triple helix. This cross-link is speculated to form early in the process of interaction between collagen IX molecules and collagen II polymers. A model of molecular folding and further cross-linking is predicted that can spatially accommodate the formation of all six known cross-linking interactions to the collagen IX molecule on a fibril surface. Of particular biological significance, this model can accommodate potential interfibrillar as well as intrafibrillar links between the collagen IX molecules themselves, so providing a mechanism whereby collagen IX could stabilize a collagen fibril network. 相似文献

Type IX collagen, a recently discovered, unusual protein of cartilage, has a segmented triple-helical structure containing interchain disulfides. Its polymeric form and function are unknown. When prepared by pepsin from bovine articular cartilage, type IX collagen was found to contain a high concentration of hydroxypyridinium cross-links, similar to that in type II collagen. Fluorescence spectroscopy located the hydroxylysyl pyridinoline and lysyl pyridinoline cross-linking residues exclusively in the high-molecular-weight collagen fraction, from which they were recovered predominantly in a single CNBr-derived peptide. The results point to a structural role for type IX collagen in cartilage matrix, possibly as an adhesion material to type II collagen fibrils. 相似文献

The small dermatan sulphate proteoglycan of bovine tendon demonstrated a unique ability to inhibit fibrillogenesis of both type I and type II collagen from bovine tendon and cartilage respectively in an assay performed in vitro. None of the other proteoglycan populations from cartilage, tendon or aorta, even those similar in size and chemical structure, had this effect. Alkali treatment of the small proteoglycan of tendon eliminated its ability to inhibit fibrillogenesis, whereas chondroitinase digestion did not. This indicates that its interaction with collagen depends on the core protein. Fibrillogenesis of pepsin-digested collagens was affected similarly, indicating that interaction with the collagen telopeptides is not involved. The results suggest that interactions between collagen and proteoglycans may be quite specific both for the type of proteoglycan and its tissue of origin. 相似文献

Molecular cloning of rat and human type IX collagen cDNA and localization of the alpha 1(IX) gene on the human chromosome 6 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

Type IX collagen is found in hyaline cartilage, where it is associated with type II collagen in quarter-staggered collagen fibrils. Chicken type IX collagen has been extensively characterized and shown to contain molecules with three triple-helical domains, interspersed with non-triple-helical sequences. The molecule contains three, genetically distinct, subunits and one of these subunits carries a covalently bound glycosaminoglycan side chain. In the present report, we describe for the first time the primary structure of mammalian type IX collagen chains, based on cloning and sequencing of cDNA from rat and human cDNA libraries. The results suggest that mammalian alpha 1(IX) chains have the same multi-domain structure as the avian protein. We also demonstrate, by in situ hybridization of chromosome spreads, that the human alpha 1(IX) collagen gene is located on the long arm of chromosome 6. The cloning of human type IX collagen cDNA provides a probe for molecular studies of human chondrodysplasias that may involve abnormalities in this extracellular collagen-proteoglycan. 相似文献

Summary The presence of types II, IX and V collagen was probed in the organ of Corti of the adult gerbil cochlea by use of immunocytochemistry at the light- and electron-microscopic levels. Type II collagen is found in the connective tissues of the osseous spiral lamina and spiral limbus. In the region of the sensory hair cells it is present in the tectorial membrane and antibodies bind to the thick unbranched radial fibers. Type IX collagen co-localizes with type II collagen in the tectorial membrane, where antibodies bind to the thick unbranched radial fibers. Type V collagen is present in the connective tissue of the spiral limbus, the osseous spiral lamina, the eighth nerve, and the tectorial membrane. In the tectorial membrane, the staining with antibodies to type V collagen is more diffuse than that seen for types II and IX collagen and antibodies to type V bind to the thin, highly branched fibers in which the thick fibers are embedded. The results indicate that collagens characteristic of cartilage are localized in the organ of Corti. Within the tectorial membrane, types II and IX collagen form heterotypic thick fibers embedded in a reticular network of type V collagen fibers. These collagens form a highly structured matrix which contributes to the rigidity of the tectorial membrane and allow it to withstand the physical stresses associated with transmission of the stimuli necessary for sensory transduction. 相似文献

A major site of pyridinoline cross-linking in bovine type IX collagen was traced to a tryptic peptide derived from one of the molecule's HMW chains. This peptide gave two amino acid sequences (in 2/1 ratio) consistent with it being a three-chained structure. The major sequence matched exactly that of the C-telopeptide of type II collagen from the same tissue. A second HMW chain that contained pyridinoline cross-links also gave two amino-terminal sequences, one from its own amino terminus, the other matching exactly the N-telopeptide cross-linking sequence of type II collagen. We conclude that type IX collagen molecules are covalently cross-linked in cartilage to molecules of type II collagen, probably at fibril surfaces. 相似文献

Summary Embryonic chick sternal chondrocytes were cultured either within three dimensional gels of type I collagen, type II collagen
or agar, or as monolayers on plastic dishes coated with air-dried films of these matrix macromolecules. It was observed that
cell shape and cell growth varied markedly between the different culture conditions. Flattened monolayers of cells on plastic
or films of type I or type II collagen, proliferated more rapidly and reached a higher final cell density per culture than
the more rounded cells found in the cultures on agar films or within three-dimensional gels. Biosynthetic studies demonstrated
that in addition to the synthesis of type II collagen, all the cultures were producing collagen types IX and X. Chondrocytes
cultured on plastic or films of the different matrix macromolecules all showed a similar expression of types IX and X collagen,
independent of whether they displayed a flattened or round cell morphology. In contrast, marked variations in the proportions
of the minor collagens, particularly type X collagen, were observed when the cells were cultured within three-dimensional
gels. The data suggest that direct interaction of the cell surface with matrix constituents displaying a particular spatial
array could be an important aspect in the control of type IX and X collagen expression by chondrocytes.

We analyzed the collagens synthesized by developing chick limbs (stages 22 to 34). Type IX collagen synthesis started at stage 26, concurrently with the chondrogenic differentiation of limb mesenchyme, and gradually increased during subsequent stages. By stage 34, the central cartilaginous region of the limbs substantially synthesized type IX collagen, in addition to cartilage-specific type II collagen, while the outer non-cartilaginous region of the limbs synthesized predominantly type I collagen. The present study indicates that type IX collagen is cartilage-specific and can be used as a marker for the chondrogenic phenotype. 相似文献

Involvement of HMGB1 and HMGB2 proteins in exogenous DNA integration reaction into the genome of HeLa S3 cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Electrophoretic and Western blot studies were conducted on collagen fractions extracted from Sepia officinalis (cuttlefish) cartilage using a modified salt precipitation method developed for the isolation of vertebrate collagens. The antibodies used had been raised in rabbit against the following types of collagen: Sepia I-like; fish I; human I; chicken I, II, and IX; rat V; and calf IX and XI. The main finding was that various types of collagen are present in Sepia cartilage, as they are in vertebrate hyaline cartilage. However, the main component of Sepia cartilage is a heterochain collagen similar to vertebrate type I, and this is associated with minor forms similar to type V/XI and type IX. The cephalopod type I-like heterochain collagen can be considered a first step toward the evolutionary development of a collagen analogous to the typical collagen of vertebrate cartilage (type II homochain). The type V/XI collagen present in molluscs, and indeed all phyla from the Porifera upwards, may represent an ancestral collagen molecule conserved relatively unchanged throughout evolution. Type IX-like collagen seems to be essential for the formation of cartilaginous tissue. 相似文献

Type IX collagen is a quantitatively minor component of hyaline cartilage that is essential for the normal structural integrity of the tissue. Purification and analysis are difficult because the mature protein is insoluble as a cross-linked integral component of the fibrillar matrix. In order to view a peptide map of the total pool of type IX collagen in a cartilage sample, a selective method based on Western blot analysis was developed for displaying collagen IX peptides in a cyanogen bromide digest of tissue. Digests were partially resolved by reverse-phase HPLC, individual fractions were run on SDS-PAGE and then transblotted to membrane, and the collagen IX fragments were revealed using an anti-collagen IX rabbit antiserum. All major CB-peptides from alpha1(IX), alpha2(IX), and alpha3(IX) chains in the resulting two-dimensional display were identified by amino-terminal sequence analysis. Cross-linked peptides originating from sites of covalent interaction between collagen types IX and II and between IX and IX were also defined. By comparison with an analysis of soluble type IX collagen from chondrocyte culture medium, the results showed that the pool of type IX collagen molecules in fetal and adult human cartilage is extensively cross-linked intermolecularly at sites previously revealed by other methods using purified protein. This sensitive, direct method has the potential to screen for abnormalities in the content and properties of type IX collagen in tissue samples, for example, in the study of heritable chondrodysplasia syndromes and the pathogenesis of cartilage destruction in osteoarthritis. 相似文献
