Collagen IV, a key structural protein of basement membranes, is vital for the development and survival of multicellular life forms. Its maturation relies on specific post-translational O- glycosylation, primarily mediated by lysyl hydroxylase-3 (LH3) and other glycosyltransferases, which sculpt collagen by modifying the hydroxylysine residues with sugar moieties.
IV型胶原蛋白是基底膜的一种关键结构蛋白,对多细胞生命形式的发育和存活至关重要。其成熟依赖于特定的翻译后O-糖基化,主要由赖氨酰羟化酶-3(LH3)和其他糖基转移酶介导,这些酶通过用糖基修饰羟赖氨酸残基来塑造胶原蛋白。
