MMP15 - matrix metallopeptidase 15 Gene
Also Known as MMP-15; MT2MMP; MTMMP2; SMCP-2; MT2-MMP
Species: Homo sapiens
About MMP15
This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 274 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Broad expression in thyroid (RPKM 28.2), placenta (RPKM 20.0) and 22 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the peptidase M10 family and membrane-type subfamily of Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs). Proteins in this family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Members of this subfamily contain a transmembrane domain suggesting that these proteins are expressed at the cell surface rather than secreted. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protease. This protein may play a role in Cancer progression. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016]
