Fig. 1

Frequency of Yaa-Gly-Xaa triplets in the uninterrupted triple-helical domains (A) and surrounding the interruptions (B) in the 44 known human collagen α-chains and in the collagen-like proteins from humans, viruses and the three superkingdoms. In the case of interruptions GnG, where 0 ≥ n ≤ 15, the triplet frequency was determined in the four triplets (labeled P1-P4) surrounding the interruptions.
