Procollagen molecules are packaged and secreted by passing through the Golgi.
Procollagen peptidases cleave the N- and C- terminal of
collagens (Types, I, II, III)
tropocollagen
cleaved product after procollagen
topocollagen
entire (Gly-X-Y]n region and telopeptides
deficiency in procollagen peptidases

Dislocation of major joints
1/4 stagger for fibril formation with 400 Å gaps between head and tail
tropocollagen

Once the molecules are aligned, they are strengthened by —— cross-linking.
Once the molecules are aligned, they are strengthened by covalent cross-linking.
step 1 ;lysyl oxidases
Oxidation of lysyl (and hydroxylysyl) residues
step 2; Spontaneous condensations
