Assembly and secretion of recombinant human collagens and gelatins in the yeast <em>Pichia pastoris</em>, and generation and analysis of knock-out mice for collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylase type I

Abstract Collagen molecules consist of three polypeptide chains that are coiled around each other to form a triple-helical structure. The formation of stable collagen triple helices requires the hydroxylation of proline residues catalyzed by collagen prolyl 4-hydroxylases (C-P4H). Vertebrate C-P4H...
