Abstract
The collagen IVα345 (Col-IVα345) scaffold, the major constituent of the glomerular basement membrane (GBM), is a critical component of the kidney glomerular filtration barrier. In Alport syndrome, affecting millions of people worldwide, over two thousand genetic variants occur in the COL4A3, COL4A4, and COL4A5 genes that encode the Col-IVα345 scaffold. Variants cause loss of scaffold, a suprastructure that tethers macromolecules, from the GBM or assembly of a defective scaffold, causing hematuria in nearly all cases, proteinuria, and often progressive kidney failure. How these variants cause proteinuria remains an enigma. In a companion paper, we found that the evolutionary emergence of the COL4A3, COL4A4, COL4A5, and COL4A6 genes coincided with kidney emergence in hagfish and shark and that the COL4A3 and COL4A4 were lost in amphibians. These findings opened an experimental window to gain insights into functionality of the Col-IVα345 scaffold. Here, using tissue staining, biochemical analysis and TEM, we characterized the scaffold chain arrangements and the morphology of the GBM of hagfish, shark, frog, and salamander. We found that α4 and α5 chains in shark GBM and α1 and α5 chains in amphibian GBM are spatially separated. Scaffolds are distinct from one another and from the mammalian Col-IVα345 scaffold, and the GBM morphologies are distinct. Our findings revealed that the evolutionary emergence of the Col-IVα345 scaffold enabled the genesis of a compact GBM that functions as an ultrafilter. Findings shed light on the conundrum, defined decades ago, whether the GBM or slit diaphragm is the primary filter.

Abstract
Antibodies are central effectors of the adaptive immune response, widespread used therapeutics, but also potentially disease-causing biomolecules. Antibody folding catalysts in the plasma cell are incompletely defined. Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal chronic lung disease with increasingly recognized autoimmune features. We found elevated expression of FK506-binding protein 11 (FKBP11) in IPF lungs where FKBP11 specifically localized to antibody-producing plasma cells. Suggesting a general role in plasma cells, plasma cell-specific FKBP11 expression was equally observed in lymphatic tissues, and in vitro B cell to plasma cell differentiation was accompanied by induction of FKBP11 expression. Recombinant human FKBP11 was able to refold IgG antibody in vitro and inhibited by FK506, strongly supporting a function as antibody peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase. Induction of ER stress in cell lines demonstrated induction of FKBP11 in the context of the unfolded protein response in an X-box-binding protein 1 (XBP1)-dependent manner. While deficiency of FKBP11 increased susceptibility to ER stress-mediated cell death in an alveolar epithelial cell line, FKBP11 knockdown in an antibody-producing hybridoma cell line neither induced cell death nor decreased expression or secretion of IgG antibody. Similarly, antibody secretion by the same hybridoma cell line was not affected by knockdown of the established antibody peptidyl-prolyl isomerase cyclophilin B. The results are consistent with FKBP11 as a novel XBP1-regulated antibody peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase and indicate significant redundancy in the ER-resident folding machinery of antibody-producing hybridoma cells.

Abstract
Collagen is the most abundant protein in humans. It has a characteristic triple-helix structure and is heavily posttranslationally modified. The complex biosynthesis of collagen involves processing by many enzymes and chaperones in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Lysyl hydroxylase 1 (LH1) is required to hydroxylate lysine for cross-linking and carbohydrate attachment within collagen triple helical sequences. Additionally, a recent study of prolyl 3-hydroxylase 3 (P3H3) demonstrated that this enzyme may be critical for LH1 activity; however, the details surrounding its involvement remain unclear. If P3H3 is an LH1 chaperone that is critical for LH1 activity, P3H3 and LH1 null mice should display a similar deficiency in lysyl hydroxylation. To test this hypothesis, we compared the amount and location of hydroxylysine in the triple helical domains of type V and I collagen from P3H3 null, LH1 null, and wild-type mice. The amount of hydroxylysine in type V collagen was reduced in P3H3 null mice, but surprisingly type V collagen from LH1 null mice contained as much hydroxylysine as type V collagen from wild-type mice. In type I collagen, our results indicate that LH1 plays a global enzymatic role in lysyl hydroxylation. P3H3 is also involved in lysyl hydroxylation, particularly at cross-link formation sites, but is not required for all lysyl hydroxylation sites. In summary, our study suggests that LH1 and P3H3 likely have two distinct mechanisms to recognize different collagen types and to distinguish cross-link formation sites from other sites in type I collagen.

Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft-tissue sarcoma of childhood with a propensity to metastasize. Current treatment for patients with RMS includes conventional systemic chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and surgical resection; nevertheless, little to no improvement in long term survival has been achieved in decades-underlining the need for target discovery and new therapeutic approaches to targeting tumor cells or the tumor microenvironment. To evaluate cross-species sarcoma extracellular matrix production, we have used murine models which feature knowledge of the myogenic cell-of-origin. With focus on the RMS/undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) continuum, we have constructed tissue microarrays of 48 murine and four human sarcomas to analyze expression of seven different collagens, fibrillins, and collagen-modifying proteins, with cross-correlation to RNA deep sequencing. We have uncovered that RMS produces increased expression of type XVIII collagen alpha 1 (COL18A1), which is clinically associated with decreased long-term survival. We have also identified significantly increased RNA expression of COL4A1, FBN2, PLOD1, and PLOD2 in human RMS relative to normal skeletal muscle. These results complement recent studies investigating whether soft tissue sarcomas utilize collagens, fibrillins, and collagen-modifying enzymes to alter the structural integrity of surrounding host extracellular matrix/collagen quaternary structure resulting in improved ability to improve the ability to invade regionally and metastasize, for which therapeutic targeting is possible.

Abstract
Heat shock protein 47 (HSP47), encoded by the SERPINH1 gene, is a molecular chaperone essential for correct folding of collagens. We report a homozygous p.(R222S) substitution in HSP47 in a child with severe osteogenesis imperfecta leading to early demise. p.R222 is a highly conserved residue located within the collagen interacting surface of HSP47. Binding assays show a significantly reduced affinity of HSP47-R222S for type I collagen. This altered interaction leads to posttranslational overmodification of type I procollagen produced by dermal fibroblasts, with increased glycosylation and/or hydroxylation of lysine and proline residues as shown by mass spectrometry. Since we also observed a normal intracellular folding and secretion rate of type I procollagen, this overmodification cannot be explained by prolonged exposure of the procollagen molecules to the modifying hydroxyl- and glycosyltransferases, as is commonly observed in other types of OI. We found significant upregulation of several molecular chaperones and enzymes involved in procollagen modification and folding on Western blot and RT-qPCR. In addition, we showed that an imbalance in binding of HSP47-R222S to unfolded type I collagen chains in a gelatin sepharose pulldown assay results in increased binding of other chaperones and modifying enzymes. The elevated expression and binding of this molecular ensemble to type I procollagen suggests a compensatory mechanism for the aberrant binding of HSP47-R222S, eventually leading to overmodification of type I procollagen chains. Together, these results illustrate the importance of HSP47 for proper posttranslational modification and provide insights into the molecular pathomechanisms of the p.(R222S) alteration in HSP47, which leads to a severe OI phenotype. Heat shock protein 47 (HSP47) is essential for correct collagen folding. We report a homozygous p.(R222S) substitution in HSP47 in a child with severe osteogenesis imperfecta. The highly conserved p.R222 residue is located within the collagen interacting surface and HSP47-R222S shows a significantly reduced affinity for type I collagen. This altered interaction leads to posttranslational overmodification of type I procollagen. In contrast to other types of OI, this overmodification is not caused by prolonged exposure of procollagen to modifying enzymes, since the intracellular folding rate of type I procollagen appears to be normal. We show significant upregulation of several molecular chaperones and collagen-modifying enzymes and increased binding of several of these molecules to unfolded type I collagen chains upon abnormal HSP47-R222S binding. This suggests a compensatory mechanism for aberrant HSP47-R222S binding, eventually leading to overmodification of type I procollagen chains, and underscores the importance of HSP47 for proper posttranslational modification.

Abstract
The low‐phenylalanine (Phe) diet with amino acid (AA) medical foods is associated with low bone mineral density (BMD) and renal dysfunction in human phenylketonuria (PKU). Our objective was to determine if diets differing in dietary protein source and acid load alter bone and renal outcomes in Pah−/− and wild‐type (WT) mice. Female and male Pah−/− (Pahenu2/enu2) and WT littermates (C57BL/6 background) were fed high‐acid AA, buffered AA (BAA), glycomacropeptide (GMP), or high‐Phe casein diets from 3 to 24 weeks of age. The BAA diet significantly reduced the excretion of renal net acid and ammonium compared with the AA diet. Interestingly, the BAA diet did not improve renal dilation in hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) stained renal sections, femoral biomechanical parameters, or femoral bone mineral content (BMC). Significantly lower femoral BMC and strength occurred in Pah−/− versus WT mice, with greater decline in female Pah−/− mice. Polyuria and mild vacuolation in the proximal convoluted tubules were observed in male Pah−/− and WT mice fed the high‐acid AA diet versus absent/minimal cortical vacuolation in males fed the GMP, BAA, or casein diets. Vacuole contents in male mice were proteinaceous. Cortical vacuolation was absent in female mice. Dilated medullary tubules were observed in all Pah−/− mice, except for male Pah−/− mice fed the GMP diet. In summary, the PKU genotype and diet showed differential effects on renal and bone status in male and female mice. Renal status improved in male Pah−/− mice fed the GMP diet.

Abstract
Spinach aptamer fluorescence requires formation of a tripartite complex composed of folded RNA, a GFP-like fluorophore, and selective cation coordination. 2'F pyrimidine modified Spinach has retained fluorescence, increased chemical stability, and accelerated cation association via increased G-quadruplex dynamics, thereby reducing readout time and enhancing Spinach utility for aqueous Pb2+ detection.

Abstract
Rhabdomyosarcoma (RMS) is the most common soft tissue sarcoma of childhood with an unmet clinical need for decades. A single oncogenic fusion gene is associated with treatment resistance and a 40 to 45% decrease in overall survival. We previously showed that expression of this PAX3:FOXO1 fusion oncogene in alveolar RMS (aRMS) mediates tolerance to chemotherapy and radiotherapy and that the class I-specific histone deacetylase (HDAC) inhibitor entinostat reduces PAX3:FOXO1 protein abundance. Here, we established the antitumor efficacy of entinostat with chemotherapy in various preclinical cell and mouse models and found that HDAC3 inhibition was the primary mechanism of entinostat-induced suppression of PAX3:FOXO1 abundance. HDAC3 inhibition by entinostat decreased the activity of the chromatin remodeling enzyme SMARCA4, which, in turn, derepressed the microRNA miR-27a. This reexpression of miR-27a led to PAX3:FOXO1 mRNA destabilization and chemotherapy sensitization in aRMS cells in culture and in vivo. Furthermore, a phase 1 clinical trial (ADVL1513) has shown that entinostat is tolerable in children with relapsed or refractory solid tumors and is planned for phase 1B cohort expansion or phase 2 clinical trials. Together, these results implicate an HDAC3-SMARCA4-miR-27a-PAX3:FOXO1 circuit as a driver of chemoresistant aRMS and suggest that targeting this pathway with entinostat may be therapeutically effective in patients.

Abstract
The build-up of diversified and tissue-specific assemblies of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins depends on secreted and cell surface-located molecular arrays that coordinate ECM proteins into discrete designs. The family of small leucine-rich proteins (SLRPs) associates with and dictates the structure of fibrillar collagens, which form the backbone of most ECM types. However, whether SLRPs form complexes with proteins other than collagens is unclear. Here, we demonstrate that heat shock protein 47 (Hsp47), a well-established endoplasmic reticulum-resident collagen chaperone, also binds the SLRPs decorin, lumican, and fibromodulin with affinities comparable with that in the Hsp47-type I collagen interaction. Furthermore, we show that a lack of Hsp47 inhibits the cellular secretion of decorin and lumican. Our results expand the understanding of the concerted molecular interactions that control the secretion and organization of a functional collagenous ECM.

Abstract
Type IV collagen is a major component of the basement membrane and interacts with numerous other basement membrane proteins. Many of these interactions are poorly characterized. Type IV collagen is abundantly post-translationally modified with 3-hydroxyproline (3-Hyp), but 3-Hyp's biochemical role in type IV collagen's interactions with other proteins is not well established. In this work, we present binding data consistent with a major role of 3-Hyp in interactions of collagen IV with glycoprotein VI and nidogens 1 and 2. The increased binding interaction between type IV collagen without 3-Hyp and glycoprotein VI has been the subject of some controversy, which we sought to explore, whereas the lack of binding of nidogens to type IV collagen without 3-Hyp is novel. Using tandem MS, we show that the putative glycoprotein VI-binding site is 3-Hyp-modified in WT PFHR-9 type IV collagen, but not in PFHR-9 cells in which prolyl-3-hydroxylase 2 (P3H2) has been knocked out (KO). Moreover, we observed altered 3-Hyp occupancy across many other sites. Using amino acid analysis of type IV collagen from the WT and P3H2 KO cell lines, we confirm that P3H2 is the major, but not the only 3-Hyp-modifying enzyme of type IV collagen. These findings underscore the importance of post-translational modifications of type IV collagen for interactions with other proteins.

Abstract
Collagen is the most abundant protein in the extracellular matrix in humans and is critical to the integrity and function of many musculoskeletal tissues. A molecular ensemble comprising more than 20 molecules is involved in collagen biosynthesis in the rough endoplasmic reticulum. Two proteins, heat shock protein 47 (Hsp47/SERPINH1) and 65-kDa FK506-binding protein (FKBP65/FKBP10), have been shown to play important roles in this ensemble. In humans, autosomal recessive mutations in both genes cause similar osteogenesis imperfecta phenotypes. Whereas it has been proposed that Hsp47 and FKBP65 interact in the rough endoplasmic reticulum, there is neither clear evidence for this interaction nor any data regarding their binding affinities for each other. In this study using purified endogenous proteins, we examined the interaction between Hsp47, FKBP65, and collagen and also determined their binding affinities and functions in vitro Hsp47 and FKBP65 show a direct but weak interaction, and FKBP65 prefers to interact with Hsp47 rather than type I collagen. Our results suggest that a weak interaction between Hsp47 and FKBP65 confers mutual molecular stability and also allows for a synergistic effect during collagen folding. We also propose that Hsp47 likely acts as a hub molecule during collagen folding and secretion by directing other molecules to reach their target sites on collagens. Our findings may explain why osteogenesis imperfecta-causing mutations in both genes result in similar phenotypes.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by excessive deposition of extracellular matrix, in particular, collagens. Two IPF therapeutics, nintedanib and pirfenidone, decelerate lung function decline, but their underlying mechanisms of action are poorly understood. In this study, we sought to analyze their effects on collagen synthesis and maturation at important regulatory levels. Primary human fibroblasts from patients with IPF and healthy donors were treated with nintedanib (0.01-1.0 μM) or pirfenidone (100-1,000 μM) in the absence or presence of transforming growth factor-β1. Effects on collagen, fibronectin, FKBP10, and HSP47 expression, and collagen I and III secretion, were analyzed by quantitative polymerase chain reaction and Western blot. The appearance of collagen fibrils was monitored by scanning electron microscopy, and the kinetics of collagen fibril assembly was assessed using a light-scattering approach. In IPF fibroblasts, nintedanib reduced the expression of collagen I and V, fibronectin, and FKBP10 and attenuated the secretion of collagen I and III. Pirfenidone also down-regulated collagen V but otherwise showed fewer and less pronounced effects. By and large, the effects were similar in donor fibroblasts. For both drugs, electron microscopy of IPF fibroblast cultures revealed fewer and thinner collagen fibrils compared with untreated controls. Finally, both drugs dose-dependently delayed fibril formation of purified collagen I. In summary, both drugs act on important regulatory levels in collagen synthesis and processing. Nintedanib was more effective in down-regulating profibrotic gene expression and collagen secretion. Importantly, both drugs inhibited collagen I fibril formation and caused a reduction in and an altered appearance of collagen fibril bundles, representing a completely novel mechanism of action for both drugs.

Abstract
Extracellular matrix proteins are biosynthesized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER), and the triple-helical protein collagen is the most abundant extracellular matrix component in the human body. Many enzymes, molecular chaperones, and post-translational modifiers facilitate collagen biosynthesis. Collagen contains a large number of proline residues, so the cis/trans isomerization of proline peptide bonds is the rate-limiting step during triple-helix formation. Accordingly, the rER-resident peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) play an important role in the zipper-like triple-helix formation in collagen. We previously described this process as "Ziploc-ing the structure" and now provide additional information on the activity of individual rER PPIases. We investigated the substrate preferences of these PPIases in vitro using type III collagen, the unhydroxylated quarter fragment of type III collagen, and synthetic peptides as substrates. We observed changes in activity of six rER-resident PPIases, cyclophilin B (encoded by the PPIB gene), FKBP13 (FKBP2), FKBP19 (FKBP11), FKBP22 (FKBP14), FKBP23 (FKBP7), and FKBP65 (FKBP10), due to posttranslational modifications of proline residues in the substrate. Cyclophilin B and FKBP13 exhibited much lower activity toward post-translationally modified substrates. In contrast, FKBP19, FKBP22, and FKBP65 showed increased activity toward hydroxyproline-containing peptide substrates. Moreover, FKBP22 showed a hydroxyproline-dependent effect by increasing the amount of refolded type III collagen in vitro and FKBP19 seems to interact with triple helical type I collagen. Therefore, we propose that hydroxyproline modulates the rate of Ziploc-ing of the triple helix of collagen in the rER.

Abstract
The single-crystal structure of the collagen-like peptide (Pro-Pro-Gly)4 -Hyp-Asp-Gly-(Pro-Pro-Gly)4, was analyzed at 1.02 Å resolution. The overall average helical twist (θ = 49.6°) suggests that this peptide adopts a 7/2 triple-helical structure and that its conformation is very similar to that of (Gly-Pro-Hyp)9, which has the typical repeating sequence in collagen. High-resolution studies on other collagen-like peptides have shown that imino acid-rich sequences preferentially adopt a 7/2 triple-helical structure (θ = 51.4°), whereas imino acid-lean sequences adopt relaxed conformations (θ < 51.4°). The guest Gly-Hyp-Asp sequence in the present peptide, however, has a large helical twist (θ = 61.1°), whereas that of the host Pro-Pro-Gly sequence is small (θ = 46.7°), indicating that the relationship between the helical conformation and the amino acid sequence of such peptides is complex. In the present structure, a strong intermolecular hydrogen bond between two Asp residues on the A and B strands might induce the large helical twist of the guest sequence; this is compensated by a reduced helical twist in the host, so that an overall 7/2-helical symmetry is maintained. The Asp residue in the C strand might interact electrostatically with the N-terminus of an adjacent molecule, causing axial displacement, reminiscent of the D-staggered structure in fibrous collagens.

Abstract
A high throughput screen for compounds that induce TRAIL-mediated apoptosis identified ML100 as an active chemical probe, which potentiated TRAIL activity in prostate carcinoma PPC-1 and melanoma MDA-MB-435 cells. Follow-up in silico modeling and profiling in cell-based assays allowed us to identify NSC130362, pharmacophore analog of ML100 that induced 65-95% cytotoxicity in cancer cells and did not affect the viability of human primary hepatocytes. In agreement with the activation of the apoptotic pathway, both ML100 and NSC130362 synergistically with TRAIL induced caspase-3/7 activity in MDA-MB-435 cells. Subsequent affinity chromatography and inhibition studies convincingly demonstrated that glutathione reductase (GSR), a key component of the oxidative stress response, is a target of NSC130362. In accordance with the role of GSR in the TRAIL pathway, GSR gene silencing potentiated TRAIL activity in MDA-MB-435 cells but not in human hepatocytes. Inhibition of GSR activity resulted in the induction of oxidative stress, as was evidenced by an increase in intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and peroxidation of mitochondrial membrane after NSC130362 treatment in MDA-MB-435 cells but not in human hepatocytes. The antioxidant reduced glutathione (GSH) fully protected MDA-MB-435 cells from cell lysis induced by NSC130362 and TRAIL, thereby further confirming the interplay between GSR and TRAIL. As a consequence of activation of oxidative stress, combined treatment of different oxidative stress inducers and NSC130362 promoted cell death in a variety of cancer cells but not in hepatocytes in cell-based assays and in in vivo, in a mouse tumor xenograft model.

Abstract
Small-angle X-ray scattering and circular dichroism measurements were made for a triple-helical peptide of which one end was linked by the thermally stable trimerization domain of type XIX collagen. The radius of gyration decreased steeply around the transition temperature while the scattering intensity at zero angle did not significantly change, indicating no molar mass change through the conformational transition. Thus, the data were analyzed in terms of the rigid cylinder model for the data at low temperatures and the wormlike star model at high temperatures. It was confirmed that the peptide molecules behave as a rod-like cylinder at low temperature and a semi flexible three-arm star-like chain at high temperature of which the single-coil peptide chain is appreciably extended by the high segment density nearby the linking domain.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Protein folding is crucial for proteins' specific functions and is facilitated by various types of enzymes and molecular chaperones. The peptidyl prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIase) are one of these families of enzymes. They ubiquitously exist inside the cell and there are eight PPIases in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (rER), a compartment where the folding of most secreted proteins occurs. SCOPE OF REVIEW We review the functional and structural aspects of individual rER resident PPIases. Furthermore, we specifically discuss the role of these PPIases during collagen biosynthesis, since collagen is the most abundant protein in humans, is synthesized in the rER, and contains a proportionally high number of proline residues. MAJOR CONCLUSIONS The rER resident PPIases recognize different sets of substrates and facilitate their folding. Although they are clearly catalysts for protein folding, they also have more broad and multifaceted functions. We propose that PPIases coordinate collagen biosynthesis in the rER. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE This review expands our understanding of collagen biosynthesis by explaining the influence of novel indirect mechanisms of regulating folding and this is also explored for PPIases. We also suggest future directions of research to obtain a better understanding of collagen biosynthesis and functions of PPIases in the rER. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Proline-directed Foldases: Cell Signaling Catalysts and Drug Targets.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a heritable disorder, in both a dominant and recessive manner, of connective tissue characterized by brittle bones, fractures and extraskeletal manifestations. How structural mutations of type I collagen (dominant OI) or of its post-translational modification machinery (recessive OI) can cause abnormal quality and quantity of bone is poorly understood. Notably, the clinical overlap between dominant and recessive forms of OI suggests common molecular pathomechanisms. Here, we show that excessive transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) signaling is a mechanism of OI in both recessive (Crtap(-/-)) and dominant (Col1a2(tm1.1Mcbr)) OI mouse models. In the skeleton, we find higher expression of TGF-β target genes, higher ratio of phosphorylated Smad2 to total Smad2 protein and higher in vivo Smad2 reporter activity. Moreover, the type I collagen of Crtap(-/-) mice shows reduced binding to the small leucine-rich proteoglycan decorin, a known regulator of TGF-β activity. Anti-TGF-β treatment using the neutralizing antibody 1D11 corrects the bone phenotype in both forms of OI and improves the lung abnormalities in Crtap(-/-) mice. Hence, altered TGF-β matrix-cell signaling is a primary mechanism in the pathogenesis of OI and could be a promising target for the treatment of OI.

Abstract
The biosynthesis of collagens occurs in the rough endoplasmic reticulum and requires a large numbers of molecular chaperones, foldases, and post-translational modification enzymes. Collagens contain a large number of proline residues that are post-translationally modified to 3-hydroxyproline or 4-hydroxyproline, and the rate-limiting step in formation of the triple helix is the cis-trans isomerization of peptidyl-proline bonds. This step is catalyzed by peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases. There are seven peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases in the rER, and so far, two of these enzymes, cyclophilin B and FKBP65, have been shown to be involved in collagen biosynthesis. The absence of either cyclophilin B or FKBP65 leads to a recessive form of osteogenesis imperfecta. The absence of FKBP22 leads to a kyphoscoliotic type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), and this type of EDS is classified as EDS type VI, which can also be caused by a deficiency in lysyl-hydroxylase 1. However, the lack of FKBP22 shows a wider spectrum of clinical phenotypes than the absence of lysyl-hydroxylase 1 and additionally includes myopathy, hearing loss, and aortic rupture. Here we show that FKBP22 catalyzes the folding of type III collagen and interacts with type III collagen, type VI collagen, and type X collagen, but not with type I collagen, type II collagen, or type V collagen. These restrictive interactions might help explain the broader phenotype observed in patients that lack FKBP22.

Abstract
The FK506-binding protein (FKBP) family consists of proteins with a variety of protein-protein interaction domains and versatile cellular functions. It is assumed that all members are peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerases with the enzymatic function attributed to the FKBP domain. Six members of this family localize to the mammalian endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Four of them, FKBP22 (encoded by the FKBP14 gene), FKBP23 (FKBP7), FKBP60 (FKBP9), and FKBP65 (FKBP10), are unique among all FKBPs as they contain the EF-hand motifs. Little is known about the biological roles of these proteins, but emerging genetics studies are attracting great interest to the ER resident FKBPs, as mutations in genes encoding FKBP10 and FKBP14 were shown to cause a variety of matrix disorders. Although the structural organization of the FKBP-type domain as well as of the EF-hand motif has been known for a while, it is difficult to conclude how these structures are combined and how it affects the protein functionality. We have determined a unique 1.9 Å resolution crystal structure for human FKBP22, which can serve as a prototype for other EF hand-containing FKBPs. The EF-hand motifs of two FKBP22 molecules form a dimeric complex with an elongated and predominantly hydrophobic cavity that can potentially be occupied by an aliphatic ligand. The FKBP-type domains are separated by a cleft and their putative active sites can catalyze isomerazation of two bonds within a polypeptide chain in extended conformation. These structural results are of prime interest for understanding biological functions of ER resident FKBPs containing EF-hand motifs.

Abstract
Decorin, the prototypical small leucine-rich proteoglycan, binds to collagen and thereby regulates collagen assembly into fibrils. The crystal structure of the decorin core protein revealed a tight dimer formed by the association of two monomers via their concave faces (Scott, P. G., McEwan, P. A., Dodd, C. M., Bergmann, E. M., Bishop, P. N., and Bella, J. (2004) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U.S.A. 101, 15633–15638). Whether decorin binds collagen as a dimer has been controversial. Using analytical ultracentrifugation, we determined a dissociation constant of 1.37 ± 0.30 μm for the mouse decorin dimer. Dimerization could be abolished by engineering glycosylation sites into the dimer interface; other interface mutants remained dimeric. The monomeric mutants were as stable as wild-type decorin in thermal unfolding experiments. Mutations on the concave face of decorin abolished collagen binding regardless of whether the mutant proteins retained the ability to dimerize or not. We conclude that the concave face of decorin mediates collagen binding and that the dimer therefore must dissociate to bind collagen.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a clinically and genetically heterogeneous brittle bone disorder. Whereas dominant OI is mostly due to heterozygous mutations in either COL1A1 or COL1A2, encoding type I procollagen, recessive OI is caused by biallelic mutations in genes encoding proteins involved in type I procollagen processing or chaperoning. Hitherto, some OI cases remain molecularly unexplained. We detected a homozygous genomic deletion of CREB3L1 in a family with severe OI. CREB3L1 encodes OASIS, an endoplasmic reticulum-stress transducer that regulates type I procollagen expression during murine bone formation. This is the first report linking CREB3L1 to human recessive OI, thereby expanding the OI gene spectrum.

Abstract
Collagen biosynthesis occurs in the rough endoplasmic reticulum, and many molecular chaperones and folding enzymes are involved in this process. The folding mechanism of type I procollagen has been well characterized, and protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) has been suggested as a key player in the formation of the correct disulfide bonds in the noncollagenous carboxyl-terminal and amino-terminal propeptides. Prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 (P3H1) forms a hetero-trimeric complex with cartilage-associated protein and cyclophilin B (CypB). This complex is a multifunctional complex acting as a prolyl 3-hydroxylase, a peptidyl prolyl cis-trans isomerase, and a molecular chaperone. Two major domains are predicted from the primary sequence of P3H1: an amino-terminal domain and a carboxyl-terminal domain corresponding to the 2-oxoglutarate- and iron-dependent dioxygenase domains similar to the α-subunit of prolyl 4-hydroxylase and lysyl hydroxylases. The amino-terminal domain contains four CXXXC sequence repeats. The primary sequence of cartilage-associated protein is homologous to the amino-terminal domain of P3H1 and also contains four CXXXC sequence repeats. However, the function of the CXXXC sequence repeats is not known. Several publications have reported that short peptides containing a CXC or a CXXC sequence show oxido-reductase activity similar to PDI in vitro. We hypothesize that CXXXC motifs have oxido-reductase activity similar to the CXXC motif in PDI. We have tested the enzyme activities on model substrates in vitro using a GCRALCG peptide and the P3H1 complex. Our results suggest that this complex could function as a disulfide isomerase in the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
Type I collagen extracted from tendon, skin, and bone of wild type and prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 (P3H1) null mice shows distinct patterns of 3-hydroxylation and glycosylation of hydroxylysine residues. The A1 site (Pro-986) in the α1-chain of type I collagen is almost completely 3-hydroxylated in every tissue of the wild type mice. In contrast, no 3-hydroxylation of this proline residue was found in P3H1 null mice. Partial 3-hydroxylation of the A3 site (Pro-707) was present in tendon and bone, but absent in skin in both α-chains of the wild type animals. Type I collagen extracted from bone of P3H1 null mice shows a large reduction in 3-hydroxylation of the A3 site in both α-chains, whereas type I collagen extracted from tendon of P3H1 null mice shows little difference as compared with wild type. These results demonstrate that the A1 site in type I collagen is exclusively 3-hydroxylated by P3H1, and presumably, this enzyme is required for the 3-hydroxylation of the A3 site of both α-chains in bone but not in tendon. The increase in glycosylation of hydroxylysine in P3H1 null mice in bone was found to be due to an increased occupancy of normally glycosylated sites. Despite the severe disorganization of collagen fibrils in adult tissues, the D-period of the fibrils is unchanged. Tendon fibrils of newborn P3H1 null mice are well organized with only a slight increase in diameter. The absence of 3-hydroxyproline and/or the increased glycosylation of hydroxylysine in type I collagen disturbs the lateral growth of the fibrils.

Abstract
Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS) type IV is the most severe form of EDS. In many cases the disease is caused by a point mutation of Gly in type III collagen. A slower folding of the collagen helix is a potential cause for over-modifications. However, little is known about the rate of folding of type III collagen in patients with EDS. To understand the molecular mechanism of the effect of mutations, a system was developed for bacterial production of homotrimeric model polypeptides. The C-terminal quarter, 252 residues, of the natural human type III collagen was attached to (GPP)7 with the type XIX collagen trimerization domain (NC2). The natural collagen domain forms a triple helical structure without 4-hydroxylation of proline at a low temperature. At 33 °C, the natural collagenous part is denatured, but the C-terminal (GPP)7-NC2 remains intact. Switching to a low temperature triggers the folding of the type III collagen domain in a zipper-like fashion that resembles the natural process. We used this system for the two known EDS mutations (Gly-to-Val) in the middle at Gly-910 and at the C terminus at Gly-1018. In addition, wild-type and Gly-to-Ala mutants were made. The mutations significantly slow down the overall rate of triple helix formation. The effect of the Gly-to-Val mutation is much more severe compared with Gly-to-Ala. This is the first report on the folding of collagen with EDS mutations, which demonstrates local delays in the triple helix propagation around the mutated residue.

Abstract
The triple-helical domains of two subtypes of type V collagen were prepared from human placenta, one with the chain composition of [α1(V)](2)α2(V) (Vp112) and the other with the chain composition of α1(V)α2(V)α3(V) (Vp123) with limited pepsin treatment. In order to characterize the triple-helical domain of the type Vp123 collagen molecule, the reconstituted aggregate structure formed from the pepsin-treated collagen was compared by using transmission electron microscopy. The diameter of the fibrils reconstituted from types pepsin-treated type Vp123 collagen and type Vp112 collagen was highly uniform and less than the D-periodicity at all the temperatures examined, suggesting that the major triple-helical domain of both subtypes has a potency to limit their lateral growth. Both fibrils were approximately 45 nm in width and showed the D-periodic banding pattern along their axes at 34°C. In contrast to type Vp112, the reconstituted type Vp123 fibrils showed no banding pattern along their axes when they were reconstituted at 37°C. The banded fibrils once reconstituted from type Vp123 at 34°C tend to lose their characteristic pattern within 60 min when they were incubated at 37°C. One explanation is that a slightly higher content of hydrophobic residues of type Vp123 collagen than those of type V112p collagen augmented the intermolecular interaction that disturbs the D-periodicity governed essentially by electrostatic interactions. Taken together with recent data in Col5a3 gene-targeted mice, the results suggest that type V123 collagen exists not only as a periodic banded fibril but also as nonfibrillar meshwork structures.

Abstract
Prolyl 3-hydroxylase1 (P3H1) is a collagen modifying enzyme which hydroxylates certain prolines in the Xaa position of conventional GlyXaaYaa triple helical sequence. Recent investigations have revealed that mutations in the LEPRE1 (gene encoding for P3H1) cause severe osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) in humans. Similarly LEPRE1 knockout mice display an OI-like phenotype. Significant hearing loss is a common problem for people with osteogenesis imperfecta. Here we report that hearing of the P3H1 null mice is substantially affected. Auditory brainstem responses (ABRs) of the P3H1 null mice show an average increase of 20-30 dB in auditory thresholds. Three dimensional reconstructions of the mutant middle ear bones by Micro-scale X-ray computed tomography (Micro-CT) demonstrate abnormal morphology of the incudostapedial and incudomalleal joints. We establish the LEPRE1 knockout mouse as a valuable model system to investigate the mechanism of hearing loss in recessive OI.

Abstract
Background Hyperelastosis cutis is an inherited autosomal recessive connective tissue disorder. Affected horses are characterized by hyperextensible skin, scarring, and severe lesions along the back. The disorder is caused by a mutation in cyclophilin B. Results The crystal structures of both wild-type and mutated (Gly6->Arg) horse cyclophilin B are presented. The mutation neither affects the overall fold of the enzyme nor impairs the catalytic site structure. Instead, it locally rearranges the flexible N-terminal end of the polypeptide chain and also makes it more rigid. Conclusions Interactions of the mutated cyclophilin B with a set of endoplasmic reticulum-resident proteins must be affected.

Abstract
Precise mapping and unraveling the mechanism of interaction or degradation of a certain type of collagen triple helix requires the generation of short and stable collagenous fragments. This is a great challenge especially for hetero-trimeric collagens, where chain composition and register (stagger) are important factors. No system has been reported that can be efficiently used to generate a natural collagenous fragment with exact chain composition and desired chain register. The NC2 domain (only 35-50 residues) of FACIT collagens is a potent trimerization domain. In the case of type IX collagen it provides the efficient selection and hetero-trimerization of three distinct chains. The ability of the NC2 domain to determine the chain register of the triple helix is studied. We generated three possible sequence combinations (α1α1α2, α1α2α1, α2α1α1) of a type I collagen fragment (the binding region for the von Willebrand factor A3 domain) attached to the NC2 domain. In addition, two control combinations were produced that constitute homo-trimers of (α1)(3) or (α2)(3). For the hetero-trimeric constructs, α1α1α2 demonstrated a higher melting temperature than the other two. Binding experiments with the von Willebrand factor A3 domain revealed the homo-trimer of (α1)(3) as the strongest binding construct, whereas the homo-trimer of (α2)(3) showed no binding. For hetero-trimers, α1α1α2 was found to be the strongest binding construct. Differences in thermal stability and binding to the A3 domain unambiguously demonstrate that the NC2 domain of type IX collagen determines not only the chain composition but also the chain register of the adjacent triple helix.

Abstract
The rate-limiting step of folding of the collagen triple helix is catalyzed by cyclophilin B (CypB). The G6R mutation in cyclophilin B found in the American Quarter Horse leads to autosomal recessive hyperelastosis cutis, also known as hereditary equine regional dermal asthenia. The mutant protein shows small structural changes in the region of the mutation at the side opposite the catalytic domain of CypB. The peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerase activity of the mutant CypB is normal when analyzed in vitro. However, the biosynthesis of type I collagen in affected horse fibroblasts shows a delay in folding and secretion and a decrease in hydroxylysine and glucosyl-galactosyl hydroxylysine. This leads to changes in the structure of collagen fibrils in tendon, similar to those observed in P3H1 null mice. In contrast to cyclophilin B null mice, where little 3-hydroxylation was found in type I collagen, 3-hydroxylation of type I collagen in affected horses is normal. The mutation disrupts the interaction of cyclophilin B with the P-domain of calreticulin, with lysyl hydroxylase 1, and probably other proteins, such as the formation of the P3H1·CypB·cartilage-associated protein complex, resulting in less effective catalysis of the rate-limiting step in collagen folding in the rough endoplasmic reticulum.

Abstract
The matrix (MA) domain of the human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) precursor Gag (PrGag) protein plays multiple roles in the viral replication cycle. One essential role is to target PrGag proteins to their lipid raft-associated phosphatidylinositol-(4,5)-bisphosphate [PI(4,5)P(2)] assembly sites at the plasma membranes of infected cells. In addition to this role, several reports have implicated nucleic acid binding properties to retroviral MAs. Evidence indicates that RNA binding enhances the binding specificity of MA to PI(4,5)P(2)-containing membranes and supports a hypothesis in which RNA binding to MA acts as a chaperone that protects MA from associating with inappropriate cellular membranes prior to PrGag delivery to plasma membrane assembly sites. To gain a better understanding of HIV-1 MA-RNA interactions, we have analyzed the interaction of HIV MA with RNA ligands that were selected previously for their high affinities to MA. Binding interactions were characterized via bead binding, fluorescence anisotropy, gel shift, and analytical ultracentrifugation methods. Moreover, MA residues that are involved in RNA binding were identified from NMR chemical shift data. Our results indicate that the MA RNA and PI(4,5)P(2) binding sites overlap and suggest models for Gag-membrane and Gag-RNA interactions and for the HIV assembly pathway.

Abstract
Correct folding of the collagen triple helix requires a self-association step which selects and binds α-chains into trimers. Here we report the crystal structure of the trimerization domain of human type XV collagen. The trimerization domain of type XV collagen contains three monomers each composed of four β-sheets and an α-helix. The hydrophobic core of the trimer is devoid of solvent molecules and is shaped by β-sheet planes from each monomer. The trimerization domain is extremely stable and forms at picomolar concentrations. It is found that the trimerization domain of type XV collagen is structurally similar to that of type XVIII, despite only 32% sequence identity. High structural conservation indicates that the multiplexin trimerization domain represents a three dimensional fold that allows for sequence variability while retaining structural integrity necessary for tight and efficient trimerization.

Abstract
The triple helix of collagen shows a steep unfolding transition upon heating, whereas less steep and more gradual refolding is observed upon cooling. The shape of the hysteresis loop depends on the rate of temperature change as well as the peptide concentration. Experimental heating and cooling rates are usually much faster than rates of unfolding and refolding. In this work, collagen model peptides were used to study hysteresis quantitatively. Their unfolding and refolding profiles were recorded at different heating and cooling rates, and at different peptide concentrations. Data were fitted assuming kinetic mechanisms in which three chains combine to a helix with or without an intermediate that acts as a nucleus. A quantitative fit was achieved with the same kinetic model for the forward and backward reactions. Transitions of exogenously trimerized collagen models were also analyzed with a simplified kinetic mechanism. It follows that true equilibrium transitions can only be measured at high concentrations of polypeptide chains with slow scanning rates, for example, 0.1 degrees C/h at 0.25 mM peptide concentration of (Gly-Pro-Pro)(10). (Gly-Pro-4(R)Hyp)(10) folds approximately 2000 times faster than (Gly-Pro-Pro)(10). This was explained by a more stable nucleus, whereas the rate of propagation was almost equal. The analysis presented here can be used to derive kinetic and thermodynamic data for collagenous and other systems with kinetically controlled hysteresis.

Abstract
The mechanism of chain selection and trimerization of fibril-associated collagens with interrupted triple helices (FACITs) differs from that of fibrillar collagens that have special C-propeptides. We recently showed that the second carboxyl-terminal non-collagenous domain (NC2) of homotrimeric collagen XIX forms a stable trimer and substantially stabilizes a collagen triple helix attached to either end. We then hypothesized a general trimerizing role for the NC2 domain in other FACITs. Here we analyzed the NC2 domain of human heterotrimeric collagen IX, the only member of FACITs with all three chains encoded by distinct genes. Upon oxidative folding of equimolar amounts of the alpha1, alpha2, and alpha3 chains of NC2, a stable heterotrimer with a disulfide bridge between alpha1 and alpha3 chains is formed. Our experiments show that this heterotrimerization domain can stabilize a short triple helix attached at the carboxyl-terminal end and allows for the proper oxidation of the cystine knot of type III collagen after the short triple helix.

Abstract
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a skeletal disorder primarily caused by mutations in the type I collagen genes. However, recent investigations have revealed that mutations in the genes encoding for cartilage-associated protein (CRTAP) or prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 (P3H1) can cause a severe, recessive form of OI. These reports show minimal 3-hydroxylation of key proline residues in type I collagen as a result of CRTAP or P3H1 deficiency and demonstrate the importance of P3H1 and CRTAP to bone structure and development. P3H1 and CRTAP have previously been shown to form a stable complex with cyclophilin B, and P3H1 was shown to catalyze the 3-hydroxylation of specific proline residues in procollagen I in vitro. Here we describe a mouse model in which the P3H1 gene has been inactivated. Our data demonstrate abnormalities in collagen fibril ultrastructure in tendons from P3H1 null mice by electron microscopy. Differences are also seen in skin architecture, as well as in developing limbs by histology. Additionally bone mass and strength were significantly lower in the P3H1 mice as compared with wild-type littermates. Altogether these investigations demonstrate disturbances of collagen fiber architecture in tissues rich in fibrillar collagen, including bone, tendon, and skin. This model system presents a good opportunity to study the underlying mechanisms of recessive OI and to better understand its effects in humans.

Abstract
Two crystal modifications of a collagen model peptide, (Pro-Pro-Gly)4-Hyp-Hyp-Gly-(Pro-Pro-Gly)4[where Hyp is (4R,2S)-L-hydroxyproline], showed very similar unit-cell parameters and belonged to the same space groupP21. Both crystals exhibited pseudo-merohedral twinning. The main difference was in their molecular-packing arrangements. One modification showed pseudo-hexagonal packing, while the other showed pseudo-tetragonal packing. Despite their different packing arrangements, no significant differences were observed in the hydration states of these modifications. The peptide in the pseudo-tetragonal crystal showed a cyclic fluctuation of helical twists with a period of 20 Å, while that in the pseudo-hexagonal crystal did not. In these modifications, the puckering conformations of four of the 12 Hyp residues at theXposition of the Hyp(X)-Hyp(Y)-Gly sequence were in the opposite conformations to the previous hypothesis that Hyp(X) residues involved in Hyp(X):Hyp(Y) and Hyp(X):Pro(Y) stacking pairs prefer up-puckering and down-puckering conformations, respectively. Detailed investigation of the molecular interactions between Hyp(X) and adjacent molecules revealed that these opposite conformations appeared because the puckering conformation, which follows the hypothesis, is subject to steric hindrance from the adjacent molecule.

Abstract
Collagen requires hydroxylation of its proline residues to achieve proper assembly, structure, and function. Prolyl 4-hydroxylase catalyzes formation of 4-hydroxyproline, which is essential for collagen triple helix formation and stability. Prolyl 3-hydroxylase catalyzes formation of 3-hydroxyproline, which is far less abundant in collagens and whose function remains unclear. Recently mutations in prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 have been associated with osteogenesis imperfecta, yet the temporal and spatial expression patterns of the prolyl 3-hydroxylase family members during development and in adult tissues remain undefined. By northern blot analysis distinct differences in transcript sizes of the three prolyl 3-hydroxylase genes were detected. Quantitative RTPCR demonstrated tissue-specific differences in prolyl 3-hydroxylase expression, most notable of which were high levels of prolyl 3-hydroxylase 2 in kidney and prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 expression in embryonic tissues. Finally, in situ hybridization was used to assess spatio-temporal distribution of three prolyl 3-hydroxylases at embryonic days 11-15. Importantly, prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 was expressed within cartilage condensations of the vertebral bodies and in the aortic arch of the developing heart, whereas prolyl 3-hydroxylase 2 was expressed in developing lens capsule. The prolyl 3-hydroxylase 3 gene showed more generalized expression overlapping somewhat with the other two genes. This report characterizes expression of the three prolyl 3-hydroxylase genes in embryonic and adult mice. Overall these data demonstrate tissue specific prolyl 3-hydroxylase gene expression in both fetal and adult tissues indicating a developmental role for prolyl 3-hydroxylase activity.

Abstract
Collagens contain a unique triple-helical structure with a repeating sequence -G-X-Y-, where proline and hydroxyproline are major constituents in X and Y positions, respectively. Folding of the collagen triple helix requires trimerization domains. Once trimerized, collagen chains are correctly aligned and the folding of the triple helix proceeds in a zipper-like fashion. Here we report the isolation, characterization, and crystal structure of the trimerization domain of human type XVIII collagen, a member of the multiplexin family. This domain differs from all other known trimerization domains in other collagens and exhibits a high trimerization potential at picomolar concentrations. Strong chain association and high specificity of binding are needed for multiplexins, which are present at very low levels.

Abstract
The rough endoplasmic reticulum-resident protein complex consisting of prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 (P3H1), cartilage-associated protein (CRTAP), and cyclophilin B (CypB) can be isolated from chick embryos on a gelatin-Sepharose column, indicating some involvement in the biosynthesis of procollagens. Prolyl 3-hydroxylase 1 modifies a single proline residue in the alpha chains of type I, II, and III collagens to (3S)-hydroxyproline. The peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity of cyclophilin B was shown previously to catalyze the rate of triple helix formation. Here we show that cyclophilin B in the complex shows peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase activity and that the P3H1.CRTAP.CypB complex has another important function: it acts as a chaperone molecule when tested with two classical chaperone assays. The P3H1.CRTAP.CypB complex inhibited the thermal aggregation of citrate synthase and was active in the denatured rhodanese refolding and aggregation assay. The chaperone activity of the complex was higher than that of protein-disulfide isomerase, a well characterized chaperone. The P3H1.CRTAP.CypB complex also delayed the in vitro fibril formation of type I collagen, indicating that this complex is also able to interact with triple helical collagen and acts as a collagen chaperone.

Abstract
Latent transforming growth factor (TGF) beta-binding proteins (LTBPs) interact with fibrillin-1. This interaction is important for proper sequestration and extracellular control of TGFbeta. Surface plasmon resonance interaction studies show that residues within the first hybrid domain (Hyb1) of fibrillin-1 contribute to interactions with LTBP-1 and LTBP-4. Modulation of binding affinities by fibrillin-1 polypeptides in which residues in the third epidermal growth factor-like domain (EGF3) are mutated demonstrates that the binding sites for LTBP-1 and LTBP-4 are different and suggests that EGF3 may also contribute residues to the binding site for LTBP-4. In addition, fibulin-2, fibulin-4, and fibulin-5 bind to residues contained within EGF3/Hyb1, but mutated polypeptides again indicate differences in their binding sites in fibrillin-1. Results demonstrate that these protein-protein interactions exhibit "exquisite specificities," a phrase commonly used to describe monoclonal antibody interactions. Despite these differences, interactions between LTBP-1 and fibrillin-1 compete for interactions between fibrillin-1 and these fibulins. All of these proteins have been immunolocalized to microfibrils. However, in fibrillin-1 (Fbn1) null fibroblast cultures, LTBP-1 and LTBP-4 are not incorporated into microfibrils. In contrast, in fibulin-2 (Fbln2) null or fibulin-4 (Fbln4) null cultures, fibrillin-1, LTBP-1, and LTBP-4 are incorporated into microfibrils. These data show for the first time that fibrillin-1, but not fibulin-2 or fibulin-4, is required for appropriate matrix assembly of LTBPs. These studies also suggest that the fibulins may affect matrix sequestration of LTBPs, because in vitro interactions between these proteins are competitive.

Abstract
In order to evaluate the role of 3(S)-hydroxyproline [3(S)-Hyp] in the triple-helical structure, we produced a series of model peptides with nine tripeptide units including 0-9 3(S)-hydroxyproline residues. The sequences are H-(Gly-Pro-4(R)Hyp)(l)-(Gly-3(S)Hyp-4(R)Hyp)(m)-(Gly-Pro-4(R)Hyp)(n)-OH, where (l, m, n) = (9, 0, 0), (4, 1, 4), (3, 2, 4), (3, 3, 3), (1, 7, 1) and (0, 9, 0). All peptides showed triple-helical CD spectra at room temperature and thermal transition curves. Sedimentation equilibrium analysis showed that peptide H-(Gly-3(S)Hyp-4(R)Hyp)(9)-OH is a trimer. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that replacement of Pro residues with 3(S)Hyp residues decreased the transition enthalpy, and the transition temperature increases by 4.5 degrees C from 52.0 degrees C for the peptide with no 3(S)Hyp residues to 56.5 degrees C for the peptide with nine 3(S)Hyp residues. The refolding kinetics of peptides H-(Gly-3(S)Hyp-4(R)Hyp)(9)-OH, H-(Gly-Pro-4(R)Hyp)(9)-OH and H-(Gly-4(R)Hyp-4(R)Hyp)(9)-OH were compared, and the apparent reaction orders of refolding at 10 degrees C were n = 1.5, 1.3 and 1.2, respectively. Replacement of Pro with 3(S)Hyp or 4(R)Hyp has little effect on the refolding kinetics. This result suggests that the refolding kinetics of collagen model peptides are influenced mainly by the residue in the Yaa position of the -Gly-Xaa-Yaa- repeated sequence. The experiments indicate that replacement of a Pro residue by a 3(S)Hyp residue in the Xaa position of the -Gly-Xaa-4(R)Hyp- repeat of collagen model peptides increases the stability, mainly due to entropic factors.
