In vitro translation of chicken type X collagen in the presence of pancreas microsomes.
Total RNA from epiphysis of 17-day-old chick embryo tibiae was used to direct protein synthesis in a wheat germ cell free system. The type X collagen chain, identified on the basis of its electrophoretic migration and of peptides obtained by S. aureus V8 protease digestion, was the major translation product. The newly synthesized chain included a signal sequence that was removed when dog pancreas membranes were added at the time of the protein synthesis.
