Message definition (Collagen)
If collagen is subject to sufficient [[denaturation (biochemistry)|denaturation]], such as by heating, the three tropocollagen strands separate partially or completely into globular domains, containing a different secondary structure to the normal collagen polyproline II (PPII) of [[random coil]]s. This process describes the formation of [[gelatin]], which is used in many foods, including flavored [[gelatin dessert]]s. Besides food, gelatin has been used in pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and photography industries. It is also used as a [[dietary supplement]], and has been advertised as a potential remedy against the ageing process.
