Recent studies utilizing transgenic approaches, in combination with mouse and human genetics, are leading to insights into the in vivo functions of fibrillar and non-fibrillar collagens. This information helps define the molecular causes of inherited disorders of connective tissues and provides answers to fundamental questions of tissue and organ morphogenesis.
