Mmp8 - matrix metallopeptidase 8 Gene
Species: Mus musculus
About Mmp8
This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 111 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 10 phenotypes. Biased expression in liver E18 (RPKM 19.) and liver E14.5 (RPKM .8).
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 that degrades types I, II and III collagens. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit abnormalities in the inflammatory responses to various agents. This gene is located in a cluster of Other matrix metalloproteinase genes on chromosome 9.
