Normal human hyaline cartilages contain 5 distinguishable collagenous proteins in addition to, and different from, the .alpha.1(II) chain of Type II collagen. The characterization of 3 of these additional proteins was described. By the criteria of solubility, electrophoretic mobilities, ion-exchange and sieve chromatographic properties, amino acid compositions and cyanogen bromide peptide profiles, at least 2 of these proteins, and possibly the 3rd, are structurally distinct collagen .alpha. chains different from previously reported collagen chains. Further molecular heterogeneity of vertebrate collagens and the existence of at least 9 different structural genes for collagen chains were implied.
