    Abstract Dermatopontin (DPT), a small extracellular matrix protein that stimulates collagen fibrillogenesis, contains sulfotyrosine residues but neither its level of sulfation nor its binding sites on fibrillar collagens are known. Here, we discovered that DPT is present in a relatively high mass concentration (~ 0.02%) in porcine corneal stroma, from which we purified five DPT charge variants (A-E) containing up to six sulfations. The major variant (C), containing four sulfotyrosine residues, was used to locate binding sites for DPT on triple-helical collagens II and III using the Collagen Toolkits. DPT-binding loci included the triple helix crosslinking sites and collagenase cleavage site. We find that strong DPT-binding sites on triple-helical collagen comprise an arginine-rich, positively-charged sequence that also contains hydrophobic residues. This collagen-binding signature of DPT is similar to that of the chaperone HSP47. Thus, we propose that DPT assumes the role of HSP47 as a collagen chaperone during and after the secretion. Peptide II-44, harbouring the conserved collagenase cleavage site, shows the strongest DPT-binding of the Collagen Toolkit II peptides. Substituting any of the three arginine residues (R) with alanine in the sequence GLAGQRGIVGLOGQRGER of II-44 resulted in almost complete loss of DPT binding. Since osteogenesis imperfecta, spondyloepiphyseal dysplasia, and spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia congenita are associated with missense mutations that substitute the corresponding arginine residues in collagens alpha-1(I) and alpha-1(II), we suggest that disrupted DPT binding to fibrillar collagens may contribute to these connective tissue disorders. In conclusion, the present work provides a cornerstone for further elucidation of the role of DPT.

    Abstract The best-known (fibrillar) collagens support cellular adhesion primarily through a subset of collagen-binding integrins, α1β1, α2β1, α10β1 and α11β1, which have been shown to recognise a series of similar sequences. These contain Gxx'GEx''motifs (where x is a hydrophobic residue, x' is usually O (hydroxyproline) and x'' is often R). Here, we review the variations within such sequences that support integrin reactivity, and their distribution across the 28 human collagens. The main basis for our understanding is the use of triple-helical, homotrimeric collagen peptides, but this work is far from exhaustive, and there is good evidence that heterotrimeric collagens where the sequence of interest occurs in two or even just a single chain may still support integrin binding. The fibrillar collagens I, II and III are rich in GxOGER motifs, whereas GxOGEK is more widely distributed, and less frequent in these three archetypal fibrillar collagens.

    Abstract Abstract Matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) participates in normal extracellular matrix turnover during embryonic development, organ morphogenesis and wound healing, and in tissue-destruction associated with aneurysm, cancer, arthritis and heart failure. Despite its inability to cleave triple-helical collagens, MMP-3 can still bind to them, but the mechanism, location and role of binding are not known. We used the Collagen Toolkits, libraries of triple-helical peptides that embrace the entire helical domains of collagens II and III, to map MMP-3 interaction sites. The enzyme recognises five sites on collagen II and three sites on collagen III. They share a glycine-phenylalanine-hydroxyproline/alanine (GFO/A) motif that is recognised by the enzyme in a context-dependent manner. Neither MMP-3 zymogen (proMMP-3) nor the individual catalytic (Cat) and hemopexin (Hpx) domains of MMP-3 interact with the peptides, revealing cooperative binding of both domains to the triple helix. The Toolkit binding data combined with molecular modelling enabled us to deduce the putative collagen-binding mode of MMP-3, where all three collagen chains make contacts with the enzyme in the valley running across both Cat and Hpx domains. The observed binding pattern casts light on how MMP-3 could regulate collagen turnover and compete with various collagen-binding proteins regulating cell adhesion and proliferation.

    Abstract Stabilizing the three-dimensional structure of supramolecular materials can be accomplished through covalent capture of the assembled system. The lysine-aspartate charge pairs designed to direct the self-assembly of a collagen triple helix were subsequently used to covalently capture the helix through proximity-directed amide bond formation using EDC/HOBT activation. The triple helix thus stabilized maintains its folded structure and can now be used for applications previously inaccessible due to problematic folding equilibria.

    Abstract Porous biomaterials which provide a structural and biological support for cells have immense potential in tissue engineering and cell-based therapies for tissue repair. Collagen biomaterials that can host endothelial cells represent promising tools for the vascularization of engineered tissues. Three-dimensional collagen scaffolds possessing controlled architecture and mechanical stiffness are obtained through freeze-drying of collagen suspensions, followed by chemical cross-linking which maintains their stability. However, cross-linking scaffolds renders their biological activity suboptimal for many cell types, including human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), by inhibiting cell-collagen interactions. Here, we have improved crucial HUVEC interactions with such cross-linked collagen biomaterials by covalently coupling combinations of triple-helical peptides (THPs). These are ligands for collagen-binding cell-surface receptors (integrins or discoidin domain receptors) or secreted proteins (SPARC and von Willebrand factor). THPs enhanced HUVEC adhesion, spreading and proliferation on 2D collagen films. THPs grafted to 3D-cross-linked collagen scaffolds promoted cell survival over seven days. This study demonstrates that THP-functionalized collagen scaffolds are promising candidates for hosting endothelial cells with potential for the production of vascularized engineered tissues in regenerative medicine applications.

    Abstract Background: Atherothrombosis underlies acute coronary syndromes, including unstable angina and acute myocardial infarction. Within the unstable plaque, monocytes express collagenolytic matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), including MMP-13, which degrades fibrous collagen. Following rupture, vessel wall components including degraded collagen are exposed to circulating platelets. Platelet receptors then mediate the recruitment and activation of platelets to form a thrombus, blocking blood flow and resulting in myocardial infarction and sudden death.
    Objectives: Here we aim to provide information on the effects of collagen degradation on platelet adhesion and thrombus formation.
    Methods: Using increasing concentrations of MMP-13, we induced progressive degradation of fibrous and monomeric collagen I, visualized by electrophoresis, and then investigated the capacity of the resulting fragments to support static platelet adhesion and thrombus formation in whole flowing blood.
    Results: Both integrin and glycoprotein VI-dependent interactions with fibrous collagen underpin high levels of platelet adhesion under both conditions, with little obvious effect of MMP-13 treatment. Static platelet adhesion to monomeric collagen was strongly α2β1-dependent regardless of degradation status. Under flow conditions, partially degraded monomeric collagen supported increased thrombus deposition at 10 μg mL(-1) MMP-13, falling close to background when collagen degradation was complete (100 μg mL(-1) MMP-13).
    Conclusions: New binding activities come into play after partial digestion of collagen monomers, and net platelet-reactivity through all axes is abolished as degradation becomes more complete.

    Abstract The most abundant member of the collagen protein family, collagen I (also known as type I collagen; COL1), is composed of one unique (chain B) and two similar (chain A) polypeptides that self-assemble with one amino acid offset into a heterotrimeric triple helix. Given the offset, chain B can occupy either the leading (BAA), middle (ABA) or trailing (AAB) position of the triple helix, yielding three isomeric biomacromolecules with different protein recognition properties. Despite five decades of intensive research, there is no consensus on the position of chain B in COL1. Here, three triple-helical heterotrimers that each contain a putative von Willebrand factor (VWF) and discoidin domain receptor (DDR) recognition sequence from COL1 were designed with chain B permutated in all three positions. AAB demonstrated a strong preference for both VWF and DDR, and also induced higher levels of cellular DDR phosphorylation. Thus, we resolve this long-standing mystery and show that COL1 adopts an AAB register.
