" /> Procollagen Type I C-Terminal Peptide - CISMeF





Preferred Label : Procollagen Type I C-Terminal Peptide;

NCIt synonyms : P1CP; Collagen Type 1 C-Terminal Propeptide; Procollagen Type 1 C-Terminal Peptide; Collagen Type I C-Terminal Propeptide; PICP;

NCIt definition : This polypeptide is comprised of the carboxy-terminal portions of procollagen, which are proteolytically removed by bone morphogenetic protein 1 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.;

NCIt note : Fibrillar collagen is constructed from more than one gene product; thus, procollagen C-terminal peptides arise from heterogeneous sources.;
