additional information | mice with targeted inactivation of the Plod1 gene for lysyl hydroyxylase 1 are flaccid and have gait abnormalities. About 15% of them die because of aortic rupture, and smooth muscle cells in non-ruptured Plod1-/- aortas show degenerative changes. Collagen fibrils in the Plod1-/- aorta and skin have an abnormal morphology. The lysyl hydrolase activity level in the Plod1-/- skin and aorta samples is 35-45% of that in the wild type. The hydroxylysine content is decreased in all the Plod1-/- tissues, ranging from 22% of that in the wild type in the skin to 75% and 86% in the femur and lung, respectively | Mus musculus |
