    text
  • the proenzyme is localized to granules and enzyme is located in the membrane
  • MMP17 (MT4-MMP) and MMP25 (MT6-MMP), are anchored to the plasma membrane via a glycosyl-phosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchor, which confers these enzymes a unique set of regulatory and functional mechanisms that separates them from the rest of the MMP family
  • associated with the lipid rafts
  • predominantly localized in cell-cell junction regions
  • associates with the lipid raft compartment of the plasma membrane using a GPI anchor
  • basic FUNCTION
  • activates MMP2 by cleavage
  • is able to cleave type IV collagen, gelatin, fibronectin and fibrin
  • unique role for the stem region of MMP25 in mediating disulfide-linked homodimerization, an event whose outcome imparts protease stability to the protein
  • involving in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes
  • may facilitate tumor progression through its ability to activates progelatinase A
  • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, degradation

    a component
  • under non-reducing conditions is consistently detected as a major form of 120 kDa, likely representing dimeric enzyme complexes at the cell surface
  • upon reduction, is mostly found as a 57-kDa species
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule metal binding,
  • Zn2+ binding
  • protein
  • binding TIMPs in a 1:1 stoechiometry
  • MMP25 is a proteinase responsible for FCGR3A downmodulation
