Mmp12 - matrix metallopeptidase 12 Gene
Also Known as Mme
Species: Rattus norvegicus
About Mmp12
This gene has 3 transcripts (splice variants), 559 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 31 phenotypes. Biased expression in Thymus (RPKM 14.7), Spleen (RPKM 5.9) and 5 other tissues.
Summary
Predicted to enable several functions, including core promoter sequence-specific DNA binding activity; metal ion binding activity; and metalloendopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of epithelial cell proliferation; regulation of trophoblast cell migration; and response to hypoxia. Predicted to be located in cytoplasm; extracellular space; and nucleus. Used to study crescentic glomerulonephritis. Biomarker of anti-basement membrane glomerulonephritis and crescentic glomerulonephritis. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Barrett's esophagus; artery disease (multiple); coronary aneurysm; esophagus adenocarcinoma; and multiple sclerosis. Orthologous to human MMP12 (matrix metallopeptidase 12). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
