Mmp16 - matrix metallopeptidase 16 Gene
Also Known as Mt3mmp; MT3-MMP; MT-MMP 3
Species: Mus musculus
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family of extracellular matrix-degrading Enzymes that are involved in tissue remodeling, wound repair, progression of atherosclerosis and tumor invasion. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, zinc-dependent endopeptidase enzyme. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit retarded growth of the skeleton, especially in the cranium and long bones. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
