Gene Symbol MMP16
Gene Full Name matrix metallopeptidase 16 (membrane-inserted)
Background 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. The encoded protein activates MMP2 by cleavage. This gene was once referred to as MT-MMP2, but was renamed as MT-MMP3 or MMP16. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2010]
Function Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix, such as collagen type III and fibronectin. Activates progelatinase A. Involved in the matrix remodeling of blood vessels. Isoform short cleaves fibronectin and also collagen type III, but at lower rate. It has no effect on type I, II, IV and V collagen. However, upon interaction with CSPG4, it may be involved in degradation and invasion of type I collagen by melanoma cells. [UniProt]
Cellular Localization Isoform Long: Cell membrane; Single-pass type I membrane protein; Extracellular side. Note=Localized at the cell surface of melanoma cells. Isoform Short: Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix. Cell surface. Note=Localized at the cell surface of melanoma cells. [UniProt]
Calculated MW 70 kDa
PTM The precursor is cleaved by a furin endopeptidase. [UniProt]
