Chromatographic studies on CM-cellulose of collagens isolated from basement membranes of the glomerulus, lens capsule and Descemet's membrane indicate that the molecule is composed of three identical α -1 chains. The M. Wt. of the α -1 chains from basement membranes is 108,000; it is higher than that of α -1 chains of interstitial collagens by an amount attributed to the excess hexose. Chemical analyses reveal high hydroxylysine, hydroxyproline and glycine content and a low amount of alanine. There are 8 residues of half-cystine. Total carbohydrate is about 12%, consisting of equimolar amounts of glucose and galactose.
