Thus, selective oxidation and extemalization of PS in plasma membrane are likely to create conditions where oxidized PS on the external surface of the plasma membrane may act as a preferred ligand for macrophage receptor.

Procollagen proline 4-hydroxylase is the best studied of this class of enzymes it is assumed that the others have essentially the same mechanism, although proline and lysine hydroxylases show very little sequence homology (Kivirikko and Pihlajaniemi, 1998). Although 3-hydroxyproline is found only in collagen, 4-hydroxyproline and hydroxylysine are found in a variety of other proteins, including the Clq component of complement, osteocalcin, macrophage receptor proteins, and a variety of transmembrane and intercellular proteins and proteins of the cytoskeleton, as weU as some enzymes. 4-Hydroxyproline, but not hydroxylysine, also occurs in elastin.
