MMP20
geneOn this page
Summary
MMP20 (matrix metallopeptidase 20, HGNC:7167) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q22.2, encoding Matrix metalloproteinase-20 (O60882). Degrades amelogenin, the major protein component of the enamel matrix and two of the macromolecules characterizing the cartilage extracellular matrix: aggrecan and the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP).
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 protein encoded by this gene degrades amelogenin, the major protein component of dental enamel matrix, and thus thought to play a role in tooth enamel formation. A mutation in this gene, which alters the normal splice pattern and results in premature termination of the encoded protein, has been associated with amelogenesis imperfecta. This gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes located on chromosome 11q22.3.

Alternative names: Enamel metalloproteinase, Enamelysin
All UniProt accessions (1): O60882
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Degrades amelogenin, the major protein component of the enamel matrix and two of the macromolecules characterizing the cartilage extracellular matrix: aggrecan and the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP). May play a central role in tooth enamel formation. Cleaves aggrecan at the ‘360-Asn-|-Phe-361’ site.
Subcellular location. Secreted. Extracellular space. Extracellular matrix.
Tissue specificity. Expressed specifically in the enamel organ.
Post-translational modifications. Autoactivates at least at the 107-Asn-|-Tyr-108 site.
Disease relevance. Amelogenesis imperfecta, hypomaturation type, 2A2 (AI2A2) [MIM:612529] A defect of enamel formation. The disorder involves both primary and secondary dentitions. The teeth have a shiny agar jelly appearance and the enamel is softer than normal. Brown pigment is present in middle layers of enamel. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry.
Cofactor. Binds 2 Zn(2+) ions per subunit. Binds 2 calcium ions per subunit.
Domain organisation. The conserved cysteine present in the cysteine-switch motif binds the catalytic zinc ion, thus inhibiting the enzyme. The dissociation of the cysteine from the zinc ion upon the activation-peptide release activates the enzyme.
Similarity. Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.
