Type III procollagen N-terminal peptide (130 aa, ~13 kDa) is encoded by the human COL3A1 gene. This protein is produced by the cleavage of procollagen chains. Once the N-terminal peptides are removed, triple helical collagen fibrils can form. Increased serum levels of this peptide are associated with liver diseases. [ ]
