Supplementary information

MT4-MMP also known as matrix metalloproteinase 17 is a membrane-type metalloprotease. This protein has an approximate mass of 62 kDa and is anchored to the cell membrane by a GPI-anchor. MT4-MMP is expressed mainly in the brain and reproductive tissues suggesting its specialized roles across different regions. This protease belongs to the MMP family which consists of enzymes that can degrade extracellular matrix components and shows unique substrate specificities compared to other MMPs.
Biological function summary

MT4-MMP functions in tissue remodeling and extracellular matrix degradation. It does not typically form a part of larger protein complexes but works independently or in association with other cell surface molecules. MT4-MMP breaks down specific substrates contributing to processes like development reproduction and repair mechanisms. Its activity regulates the availability of bioactive molecules and extracellular matrix components impacting cellular behavior and tissue structure.

Pathways

MT4-MMP is involved in pathways critical for cell migration and angiogenesis. It participates in the activation of growth factors and modulates signaling pathways such as those related to integrins and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). MT4-MMP associates with proteins like TIMP-2 which modulates its activity providing a regulatory mechanism within these pathways. This balance between activation and inhibition affects physiological and pathological tissue remodeling.

MT4-MMP has been implicated in cancer progression and arthritis. Its overexpression or dysregulation can lead to increased degradation of the extracellular matrix facilitating tumor invasion and metastasis. In arthritis its role in degrading connective tissue components contributes to joint destruction. MT4-MMP interacts with other MMPs and inhibitors like TIMP-2 influencing disease outcomes. Understanding these interactions can help in designing therapeutic strategies targeting MT4-MMP in such diseases.

Product protocols

For this product, it's our understanding that no specific protocols are required. You can visit:

Target data

Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix, such as fibrin. May be involved in the activation of membrane-bound precursors of growth factors or inflammatory mediators, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha. May also be involved in tumoral process. Cleaves pro-TNF at the '74-Ala-|-Gln-75' site. Not obvious if able to proteolytically activate progelatinase A. Does not hydrolyze collagen types I, II, III, IV and V, gelatin, fibronectin, laminin, decorin nor alpha1-antitrypsin.
