How is collagen synthesized?

Precursor pro-α chains are synthesized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum and golgi apparatus. Three procollagen chains are aligned into a triple helix pro-collagen. Procollegen is transported to the extracellular matrix. Hydroxylated Procollagen is cross linked by lysyl oxidase forming collagen

Precursor pro-α chains are synthesized in the rough endoplasmic reticulum and golgi apparatus. Three procollagen chains are aligned into a triple helix pro-collagen. Hydroxylated Procollagen is cross linked by lysyl oxidase forming collagen. Mature collagen is transported to the ECM

Precursor pro-α chains are synthesized in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum. Two procollagen chains are aligned into a triple helix pro-collagen. Procollegen is transported to the extracellular matrix. Hydroxylated Procollagen is cross linked by lysyl oxidase forming collagen
