Protein info
Function
Seems to specifically activate progelatinase A. May thus trigger invasion by tumor cells by activating progelatinase A on the tumor cell surface.
Tissue specificity
Expressed in stromal cells of colon, breast, and head and neck.
Sequence similarities
Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.
Contains 4 hemopexin-like domains.
Domain
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.
Post-translational
modifications
The precursor is cleaved by a furin endopeptidase.
Cellular localization
Membrane. Melanosome. Identified by mass spectrometry in melanosome fractions from stage I to stage IV.
