Popis: | The acid-insoluble fraction of murine tumor basement membrane produced by the EHS sarcoma was extracted following reduction of disulfide bonds under nondenaturing conditions. Extracts prepared from tumors grown in either lathyritic or normal animals contain two procollagen-like chains as well as cross-linked oligomers of these chains. Extracted monomeric chains behave almost exactly like reduced, radiolabeled EHS collagen precursor chains on SDS-PAGE and SDSagarose suggesting that they are very similar collagens. Since the collagen extracted after reduction represented a significant proportion of the total tumor collagen, it is likely that tumor basement membrane is assembled from precursor-size Type IV collagen molecules. |
