From the Departments of Collagen XVII is a hemidesmosomal transmembrane
molecule important for epithelial adhesion in the skin. It exists in
two forms, as a full-length protein and as a soluble ectodomain that is
shed from the keratinocyte surface by furin-mediated proteolysis. To obtain information on the conformation and the functions of this unusual collagen, its largest collagenous domain, Col15, was expressed in a eukaryotic episomal expression system and purified by DEAE and
fast protein liquid- Mono S chromatography. The protein was triple-helical (Tm of 26.5 °C) when produced
in cultures containing ascorbic acid. When the vitamin supply was
limited, the 4-hydroxyproline content was reduced from 74 to 9%,
which, in turn, resulted in a drastic reduction of the stability of the
triple helix. The glycine substitution mutation G627V associated with
junctional epidermolysis bullosa, a human blistering skin disease, also
had a striking effect on thermal stability of rCol15 causing partial unfolding already at 4 °C. Col15 promoted cell adhesion of
epithelial and fibroblastic cell lines with a

diseases, circulating IgG and IgA autoantibodies were found to target rCol15r.
