Limited pepsin digestion cleaved the 60K band to a 45K band. The 60K band was shown to originate from triple helical collagen by its hydroxyproline content, its resistance to limited pepsinization, its ability to form SLS crystallites and its digestion with bacterial collagenase. The 60K collagen contained a cleavage site for human skin collagenase. The 60K collagen was not generated from the the type II collagen found in these cultures as shown by cyanogen bromide peptide mapping, partial chymotryptic peptide mapping, and digestion with an animal collagenase. The 60K collagen band may be formed by degradation of some other high molecular weight collagen precursor in these cultures or it may be a novel, undergraded biosynthetic product of the chondrocytes.","In organ culture the 60K collagen was only present in the zones 3a and 3b. In primary cell culture, the 60K collagen appeared in zones 2a, 2b, 3a, and 3b often increasing in concentration in the latter zones. In secondary cultures, the 60K collagen was synthesized by zone 1 cells and to a small extent by the tarsus cells in addition to the cells from the other zones. From this evidence the 60K collagen does not appear to be a cell culture artifact.
