Procollagen Type I N-Terminal Peptide

Go to external page http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/NCIT_C116963

A polypeptide comprised of the amino-terminal portions of procollagen, which are proteolytically removed during the intracellular formation of type I collagen fibrils. Increased plasma or serum concentrations of these peptides are associated with both fibrillogenesis of type I collagen and bone formation. [ ]
