A new trifunctional crosslink, termed hydroxyaldol-histidine, was isolated from cow skin collagen. This compound was not reducible by sodium borohydride; it was characterized by PMR spectroscopy and by low and high resolution mass spectroscopy of volatile derivatives. This crosslink is identical to an unknown amino acid previously detected in pure collagen-derived peptides. We postulate that it arises by condensation of peptidyl allysine, hydroxyallysine and histidine. This is the first example of a non-borohydride reducible crosslink found in collagen.
