Cartilage collagen: a staggered substructure in reconstituted fibrils
Abstract
In contrast to the typical transverse banding pattern of native and reconstituted skin collagen fibrils, reconstituted fibrils of cartilage collagen have an oblique banding pattern that results from a regular axial shift (89 angstroms) of component "subfibrils." The 89-angstrom shift may be related to the major helix of the collagen molecule.
