matrix metalloproteinase-9 (matrixin-9, 92 kD gelatinase, gelatinase-B, MMP9, CLG4B)

Function: 1) role in local proteolysis of the extracellular matrix & in leukocyte migration 2) monomer, disulfide-linked homodimer, & heterodimer with a 25 kD protein 3) substrates: a) collagen-4 & collagen-5 b) gelatin types 1 & 5 c) elastin d) laminin e) pro-TNF-alpha f) amyloid A4 peptide g) TGF-beta 4) inhibited by histatin-3 1/24 (histatin-5) 5) processing of the precursor yields different active forms of 64, 67 & 82 kD 6) sequentially processing by MMP3 yields the 82 kD matrix metalloproteinase-9 7) S-nitrosylation activated MMP9 in vitro & induced neuronal apoptosis [5] Cofactor: - binds 2 Zn+2 per subunit - binds 3 Ca+2 per subunit Compartment: extracellular matrix Expression: - alveolar macrophages; macrophages & transformed cell lines produce only the monomeric form - granulocytes - activated by 4-aminophenylmercuric acetate & phorbol ester Pathology: - polymorphism in promoter region of gene associated with severity of atherosclerosis in patients with coronary artery disease & possibly development of pulmonary emphysema in smokers - elevated in stroke - elevated in CSF in multiple sclerosis - elevated levels in synovial fluid of arthritis patients a) may contribute to the pathogenesis of joint destruction b) may be useful marker of disease status - elevated in asthma Laboratory: - matrix metallopeptidase 9 in serum - matrix metallopeptidase 9 in blood
