Limited pepsin digestion of bovine periodontal ligament releases genetic types I, III, and V collagen and a high cystine containing low molecular weight collagenous component. Salt fractionation and molecular sieve chromatography allowed the isolation of the latter as an apparently pure homogeneous moiety which had an approximate molecular mass of 30 000 daltons. Reduction with mercaptoethanol yielded a single 10 000-dalton band on polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis in sodium dodecyl sulfate. This led us to conclude that the newly isolated low molecular weight collagen fragment consists of three similar molecular weight chains. Unreduced collagen-like glycoprotein (CGP) [Jander, R., Troyer, D., & Rauterberg, J. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 3675-3681] after extraction from tissues with collagen denaturing solvents yields the GP140 glycoprotein upon reduction and does not release any collagen fragment below 90 000 daltons upon mild or vigorous pepsin digestion. The GP140 glycoprotein [Heller-Harrison, R. A., & Carter, W. G. (1984) J. Biol. Chem. 259, 6858-6864] isolated by extraction under reducing and collagen denaturing solvent conditions did not yield a collagen fragment below 40 000 daltons after pepsin treatment. It was clearly shown that both CGP and GP140 yield type VI collagen fragments in the above-cited reports. Since this report demonstrates that the Mr 30 000 collagen fragment is only released by pepsin treatment of nondenaturing solvent treated periodontal ligament and that only very small peptides are found in denaturing solvent treated tissue after pepsin digestion, it is concluded that the newly isolated Mr 30 000 collagen fragment reported here is not derived from type VI collagen.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
