Partial hydroxylation of certain lysines in collagen.
Peptides derived from the al chain of collagen have been isolated in small amounts and have been shown to differ from ones found in expected amounts only by substitution of hydroxylysine for lysine. This observation indicates that hydroxylation of these lysines by protocollagen hydroxylase has been effected to a very minor extent.
