The matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are a family of peptidase enzymes responsible for the degradation of extracellular matrix components, including collagen, gelatin, fibronectin, laminin and proteoglycan.
Transcription of MMP genes is differentially activated by phorbol ester, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) or staphylococcal enterotoxin B (SEB).
MMP catalysis requires both calcium and zinc.
MMP-7 (also designated Pump-1, matrilysin or uterine metalloproteinase) degrades casein, fibronectin and gelatin types I, III, IV and V.
MMP-7 mRNA is produced exclusively by epithelial cells in mouse and expression is restricted to specific organs, suggesting that in addition to matrix degradation and remodeling, MMP-7 may be involved in the differentiated function of these organs.
