Metalloproteinases and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases

Breast Cancer Research and Treatment, 1998
Because the proteolytic degradation of extracellular matrix is required for invasion and metastasis, it would appear that the important family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and their inhibitors (TIMPs) might be prognostic indicators of the invasive potential of a breast tumor.

Handling Metalloproteinases

Current Protocols in Protein Science, 2016
AbstractSubstrate cleavage by metalloproteinases involves nucleophilic attack on the scissile peptide bond by a water molecule that is polarized by a catalytic metal, usually a zinc ion, and a general base, usually the carboxyl group of a glutamic acid side chain.

Matrix Metalloproteinases

Current Protocols in Cell Biology, 2003
AbstractMatrix metalloproteinases are a class of enzymes that play an important role in the remodeling of the extracellular matrix in development and cancer metastasis. This unit describes a set of methods‐cell‐mediated dissolution of type I collagen fibrils, direct and reverse zymography, enzyme capture based on a‐2 macroglubulin and TIMP‐1 and ‐2 ...

Matrix Metalloproteinases

Current Protocols in Cell Biology, 2008
AbstractMatrix metalloproteinases are a class of enzymes that play an important role in the remodeling of the extracellular matrix in development and cancer metastasis. This unit describes a set of methods—cell‐mediated dissolution of type‐1 collagen fibrils, direct and reverse zymography, enzyme capture based on α2‐macroglobulin and TIMP‐1 and ‐2, and
