Invertebrate and Vertebrate Collagens

  • First Online:
Evolution of Extracellular Matrix

Part of the book series: Biology of Extracellular Matrix ((BEM))

Abstract

Collagens form a family of extracellular matrix proteins that is often associated with metazoan multicellularity and evolution. These modular proteins elaborate supramolecular networks that contribute to the physical and biological properties of tissues. Among the different collagen families characterized in vertebrates, three of them represent ubiquitous components of extracellular matrices (fibrillar collagens), and basement membranes (type IV collagens and multiplexins). Interestingly, these three collagen families are already present in basal animals, sponges, and cnidarians. Other metazoan collagen families have a phylum-specific origin or have emerged during chordate evolution. Collagen-like proteins that are not involved in animal extracellular matrix structure have been discovered in vertebrates and bacterial pathogens. Among these, vertebrate defense collagens of the innate immune system provide protection against pathogens while bacterial collagens seem to be involved in pathogen virulence.
