MMP14 ist ein Gen, das durch das Symbol MMP14 kodiert wird. Im Allgemeinen auch bezeichnet als: Matrix metalloproteinase-14; MMP-14; MMP-X1; Membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 1; MT-MMP 1; Membrane-type-1 matrix metalloproteinase; MT1-MMP. MMP14 hat eine Masse von 65.89kDa, eine Aminosäurelänge von 582, und ist an Winchester syndrome beteiligt.

Gen- und Proteininformationen
UniProt Zusammenfassung
Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix such as collagen. Activates progelatinase A. Essential for pericellular collagenolysis and modeling of skeletal and extraskeletal connective tissues during development (By similarity). May be involved in actin cytoskeleton reorganization by cleaving PTK7 (PubMed:20837484). Acts as a positive regulator of cell growth and migration via activation of MMP15. Involved in the formation of the fibrovascular tissues in association with pro-MMP2 (PubMed:12714657). Cleaves ADGRB1 to release vasculostatin-40 which inhibits angiogenesis (PubMed:22330140).
Entrez Zusammenfassung
Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Most MMP's are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. However, the protein encoded by this gene is a member of the membrane-type MMP (MT-MMP) subfamily; each member of this subfamily contains a potential transmembrane domain suggesting that these proteins are expressed at the cell surface rather than secreted. This protein activates MMP2 protein, and this activity may be involved in tumor invasion.
Gewebespezifität
Expressed in stromal cells of colon, breast, and head and neck. Expressed in lung tumors.
Rolle bei Krankheiten
Winchester syndrome: A disease characterized by severe osteolysis in the hands and feet, generalized osteoporosis, bone thinning, and absence of subcutaneous nodules. Various additional features include coarse face, corneal opacities, gum hypertrophy, and EKG changes.
Sequenzähnlichkeiten
Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.
Posttranslationale Modifikation
The precursor is cleaved by a furin endopeptidase.
Zellort
Membrane. Melanosome. Cytoplasm.
Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV. Forms a complex with BST2 and localizes to the cytoplasm.
