Matrix metalloproteinase-14

UniProt P50281 Organism Homo sapiens Gene MMP14 EC 3.4.24.80

Also known as: MMP14

Function

Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix such as collagen. Essential for pericellular collagenolysis and modeling of skeletal and extraskeletal connective tissues during development (By similarity). Activates progelatinase A/MMP2, thereby acting as a positive regulator of cell growth and migration. Involved in the formation of the fibrovascular tissues in association with pro-MMP2. May be involved in actin cytoskeleton reorganization by cleaving PTK7. Acts as a regulator of Notch signaling by mediating cleavage and inhibition of DLL1. Cleaves ADGRB1 to release vasculostatin-40 which inhibits angiogenesis. Acts as a negative regulator of the GDF15-GFRAL aversive response by mediating cleavage and inactivation of GFRAL.
