Matrix Metalloproteinase-13 is a recombinant enzyme.
MMPs are secreted by diverse connective tissue and pro-inflammatory cells. Typically, these enzymes exhibit minimal expression under normal physiological circumstances. MMPs assume a pivotal role in various cellular processes, including cell proliferation, migration, differentiation, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and immunity. They share a common domain structure, consisting of three key components. First is the pro-peptide, which requires removal to activate the enzyme. Next, there is the catalytic domain, featuring a cysteine switch, where a cysteine residue interacts with zinc, and the haemopexin-like C-terminal domain is linked to the catalytic domain via a flexible hinge region. Collagenase 3, also known as MMP-13, is an enzyme encoded by the MMP13 gene in humans. It is also recognized by its aliases CLG3, MANDP1, and MDST. MMP-13 is particularly efficient at cleaving type II collagen, more so than types I and III. It is thought to be involved in the turnover of articular cartilage and is associated with the pathophysiology of osteoarthritis. The activity of MMP-13 is tightly regulated due to its potent proteolytic capabilities. Various cytokines and growth factors have been shown to influence the expression of the Mmp13 gene, including parathyroid hormone, IGF-1, TGF-β, hepatocyte growth factor, as well as several inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1α and IL-1β.
