MMP8
gene geneOn this page
Summary
MMP8 (matrix metallopeptidase 8, HGNC:7175) is a protein-coding gene on chromosome 11q22.2, encoding Neutrophil collagenase (P22894). Can degrade fibrillar type I, II, and III collagens.
This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family of proteins. These proteins are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Proteolysis at different sites on this protein results in multiple active forms of the enzyme with distinct N-termini. This protein functions in the degradation of type I, II and III collagens. The gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

All UniProt accessions (5): E9PIY7, E9PJB3, E9PL87, H7C1M3, P22894
UniProt curated annotations — full annotation on UniProt →
Function. Can degrade fibrillar type I, II, and III collagens.
Subcellular location. Cytoplasmic granule. Secreted. Extracellular space. Extracellular matrix.
Tissue specificity. Neutrophils.
Activity regulation. Cannot be activated without removal of the activation peptide.
Cofactor. Binds 3 Ca(2+) ions per subunit. Binds 2 Zn(2+) 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.
