Gene

MMP3

Species
Homo sapiens
Symbol
MMP3
Name
matrix metallopeptidase 3
Synonyms
  • CHDS6
  • matrix metallopeptidase 3 (stromelysin 1, progelatinase)
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables endopeptidase activity and metallopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to UV-A; negative regulation of reactive oxygen species metabolic process; and positive regulation of protein-containing complex assembly. Predicted to be located in extracellular region. Predicted to be active in extracellular space. Implicated in several diseases, including artery disease (multiple); carcinoma (multiple); end stage renal disease; osteoarthritis; and von Hippel-Lindau disease. Biomarker of several diseases, including Takayasu's arteritis; arthritis (multiple); autoimmune disease (multiple); conjunctivochalasis; and lung disease (multiple).
RGD Description
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. This gene encodes an enzyme which degrades fibronectin, laminin, collagens III, IV, IX, and X, and cartilage proteoglycans. The enzyme is thought to be involved in wound repair, progression of atherosclerosis, and tumor initiation. The gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3.
