The objective of this study was to assess the nature of the collagens from the Amur sturgeon to determine its possibility as a potential collagen source for biomedical applications. From a sturgeon (1.22 kg), 6.0 g (dry wt) of skin collagen (SC), 4.1 g of swim bladder collagen (SBC), and 0.4 g of notochord collagen (NC) were obtained. SC and SBC were characterized as type I, and NC as type II collagen. Denaturation temperatures of SC, SBC, and NC were calculated as 28.5, 30.5, and 33.5 degrees C, respectively. Gene expression of the type I procollagen alpha 2 chain of Amur sturgeon (ascol1a2) was specifically higher than ascol1a1 expression in the swim bladder, suggesting a unique composition of alpha chains in this organ. SC and SBC had better abilities of fibril formation with unique higher order structures compared with porcine type I collagen. The maximum transition temperature (Tm) of reassembled fibrils formed in a buffer solution containing NaCl at 0 and 140 mM was 34.4 degrees C and 38.9 degrees C in SC, and 40.1 degrees C and 40.7 degrees C in SBC, respectively. These characteristic features suggested that sturgeon collagens could be used in the biomedical industries in future applications. (C) 2019 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
