Abstract  Ovine bones are the major by-products after slaughtered.  The present study was conducted to extract and characterize acid soluble collagens (ASC) and pepsin soluble collagens (PSC) from ovine bones (Ujumuqin sheep).  Ovine bones collagen were identified by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) and liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) as type I collagen.  The results of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra analysis testified the existence of triple superhelical structure in both ASC and PSC, showing pepsin did not disrupt the triple helical structure of ovine bones collagen.  Glycine, accounting for one-third of total amino acids, was the major amino acid for ovine bones collagen.  Higher imino acid content was responsible for higher thermal denaturation temperature of ovine bones collagen compared to fish collagens.  The isoelectric point of ASC was lower than PSC due to the higher content of acidic amino acids.  Therefore, this study provides the potential reference for collagen extraction and application of ovine bones by-procduct.
