Other name
Neutrophil collagenase (EC 3.4.24.34;Matrix metalloproteinase-8;MMP-8;PMNL collagenase;PMNL-CL)
Background
catalytic activity:Cleavage of interstitial collagens in the triple helical domain. Unlike EC 3.4.24.7, this enzyme cleaves type III collagen more slowly than type I.,cofactor:Binds 2 zinc ions per subunit.,cofactor:Binds 3 calcium ions per subunit.,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.,enzyme regulation:Cannot be activated without removal of the activation peptide.,function:Can degrade fibrillar type I, II, and III collagens.,similarity:Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.,similarity:Contains 4 hemopexin-like domains.,subcellular location:Stored in intracellular granules.,tissue specificity:Neutrophils.,
Function
skeletal system development, ossification, proteolysis, collagen catabolic process, collagen metabolic process,multicellular organismal metabolic process, multicellular organismal catabolic process, multicellular organismal macromolecule metabolic process, bone development,
