Studies on Collagen Peptidases

  • Chapter
Connective Tissues

Abstract

Collagenolytic enzymes like collagenases and collagenpeptidases take part in the collagen turnover. As collagenases — especially collagen-proteases — split native collagen, collagenolytic activity was determined by using 14C-labelled native collagen for a substrate (Woods and Nichols, 1965; Nagai et al., 1966; Jeffrey and Gross, 1967; Eisen et al., 1968; Lazarus et al., 1968; Harris et al., 1969; Keiditsch and Strauch, 1970, Vaes, 1971).
