Collagen Structure - Protein Biochemistry

Описание к видео Collagen Structure - Protein Biochemistry

Collagen is the most abundant protein in vertebrates. It has a very high tensile strength, and it is essential component of some of our strongest structures, e.g. bones, teeth, ligaments, tendons, cartilage, etc. Collagen makes up about 30% of our bodies by mass.
In this video, I discuss the unique triple helix structure of collagen, along with a discussion of its unusual amino acid composition. Collagen is one of the best-studied fibrous proteins.
