3 Questions
Which of the following best describes the process by which collagen molecules assemble into fibrils?
The process is independent of the diameter of the fibrils.
What is the main characteristic of the axial periodic pattern in collagen fibrils?
The pattern is a consequence of overlapping triple strands.
What is the purpose of the D-banding pattern in collagen fibrils?
The pattern provides structural stability to the fibrils.
Test your knowledge on collagen assembly and the formation of D-banding patterns in this quiz. Learn about the process by which collagen molecules come together to form fibrils with regular axial periodicity.
