Supplementary information

Collagenase ColA also known as Collagenase G is an enzyme that breaks down collagen in the extracellular matrix. This enzyme belongs to the family of metalloproteases and has a mass of approximately 116 kDa. Collagenase ColA is expressed in a variety of bacteria notably in Clostridium histolyticum. It plays an important role in tissue remodeling and bacterial invasion by facilitating the breakdown of collagen which is the most abundant protein in the human body.
Biological function summary

Collagenase ColA enables bacterial pathogens to penetrate host tissues by degrading structural barriers composed of collagen. It is not part of a large complex but functions individually to exert its collagen-degrading action. This ability to degrade collagen makes it essential for bacterial infection processes and host tissue infiltration highlighting its significance in microbial pathogenicity.

Pathways

Collagen degradation involves the participation of Collagenase ColA impacting processes like connective tissue breakdown and remodeling. It collaborates with other proteases and is involved in extracellular matrix pathways. The action of this enzyme also links with protease-activated receptor signaling pathways which can involve other related proteins such as gelatinases and stromelysins that share collagenolytic activities.

Increased activity of Collagenase ColA is associated with diseases like necrotizing fasciitis and bacterial infections leading to cellulitis. These disorders often result due to the enzyme's capability to assist bacterial spread by degrading host tissue barriers. Moreover increased collagenase activity can link to other proteins like matrix metalloproteinases which are often upregulated in inflammatory conditions and tissue degradation diseases.

Target data

Clostridial collagenases are among the most efficient degraders of eukaryotic collagen known; saprophytes use collagen as a carbon source while pathogens additionally digest collagen to aid in host colonization. Has both tripeptidylcarboxypeptidase on Gly-X-Y and endopeptidase activities; the endopeptidase cuts within the triple helix region of collagen while tripeptidylcarboxypeptidase successively digests the exposed ends, thus clostridial collagenases can digest large sections of collagen (By similarity).
