Proteolytic enzymes, such as gelatinase/type IV collagenase, play a pivotal role in cancer invasion and metastasis. Invasive human fibrosarcoma cells (HT1080) secrete two species of gelatinase/type IV collagenase, 68-72 kDa and 92 kDa enzymes. The purpose of this study is to elucidate which species of gelatinase/type IV collagenase plays a more important role in invasion. We have found that HT1080 x human fibroblast hybrids have reduced ability to invade a reconstituted basement membrane (Matrigel) in vitro compared to HT1080 cells, and abundantly secrete only the 68-72 kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase. These data suggest that the 92 kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase may be more important in HT1080 cell invasion. We next transfected HT1080 genomic DNA into non-invasive mouse C3H/10T1/2 fibroblast cells, which secrete only 68-72 kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase. Four invasive transfectants were established. These invasive transfectants secreted the 92 kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase in addition to the 68-72 kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase, whereas non-invasive control DNA transfectants did not secrete the 92 kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase. These results suggest that the induction of the 92 kDa gelatinase/type IV collagenase is important in the invasive phenotype. 相似文献

Type IV collagenase is a metalloproteinase associated with metastatic tumor cells. It specifically cleaves the triple helical basement membrane (type IV) collagen molecule at a single site. Monoclonal antibodies which block the activity of the human type IV collagenase were developed and used to purify this antigen. The purified type IV collagenase was partially sequenced following cyanogen bromide and trypsin cleavage. The amino acid sequence of the human type IV collagenase fragments revealed a region homologous to the human interstitial collagenase and stromelysin. However, several sequences in type IV collagenase were identified which are distinct from the latter. Polyclonal antibodies were raised against a synthetic peptide derived from such a sequence. Following affinity purification, the antibodies recognized the denatured human type IV collagenase in Western immunoblotting. These data indicate that type IV collagenase is a distinct member of a general family of metalloproteinases. 相似文献

We have studied the effect of laminin on type IV collagenolytic activity elaborated by malignant cells in culture. Laminin (at concentrations of 4-8 micrograms/ml) added to serum-free culture supernatants of subconfluent A2058 human melanoma cells significantly increased the release of the type IV collagenolytic activity (200-300%). The induction of type IV collagenase was more pronounced (580%) using a fragment of laminin which binds to the cell surface laminin receptor. A monoclonal antibody against the human laminin receptor blocked the effect of laminin on type IV collagenase, suggesting that occupation of the laminin receptor may be necessary for the effect. Increase in the type IV collagenolytic activity mediated by laminin was also demonstrated in two other malignant cell lines, HT fibrosarcoma (168%) and mouse melanoma (B16-F10) (271%). The increase in type IV collagenase was found to be specific for laminin because another cell-binding matrix protein, fibronectin, did not have any effect, and epidermal growth factor and transferrin actually decreased the type IV collagenase in human melanoma culture medium (epidermal growth factor, 50% at 20 ng/ml; and transferrin, 20% at 10 micrograms/ml). These studies suggest that tumor cell binding to laminin, which comprises the first step of basement membrane invasion, will induce the second step, namely the collagenolytic dissolution of the basement membrane. 相似文献

Human 92- and 72-kilodalton type IV collagenases are elastases. 总被引:30,自引:0,他引:30

Elastin is critical to the structural integrity of a variety of connective tissues. Only a select group of enzymes has thus far been identified capable of cleaving insoluble elastin. Recently, we observed that human alveolar macrophages secrete elastase activity that is largely inhibited by the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (TIMP). This finding suggested that one or more of the metalloproteinases released by alveolar macrophages has elastase activity. Accordingly, we tested pure human interstitial collagenase, stromelysin, 92-kDa type IV collagenase, and 72-kDa type IV collagenase for elastolytic activity using kappa-elastin zymography and insoluble 3H-labeled elastin. The 92- and 72-kDa type IV collagenases were found to be elastolytic in both assay systems. A recombinant preparation of 92-kDa type IV collagenase with gelatinolytic activity was also found to be elastolytic. Organomercurial activation was essential to detect elastolytic activity of the native 92- and 72-kDa type IV collagenases and enhanced the elastase activity of the recombinant 92-kDa enzyme. On a molar basis the recombinant 92-kDa type IV collagenase was approximately 30% as active as human leukocyte elastase in solubilizing 3H-labeled elastin. Exogenously added TIMP in significant molar excess abolished the elastase activity of the 92- and 72-kDa type IV collagenases. Stromelysin and interstitial collagenase showed no significant elastolytic activity, although both were catalytically active against susceptible substrates. Conditioned media from cultures of human mononuclear phagocytes containing the 92-kDa enzyme produced a distinct zone of lysis in the kappa-elastin zymograms at this molecular mass. These results definitively extend the spectrum of human proteinases with elastolytic activity to metalloproteinases and suggest the enzymatic basis for elastase activity observed with certain cell types such as human alveolar macrophages. 相似文献

During wound healing, pericellular proteolysis is thought to be essential for the detachment of keratinocytes from basement membrane and in their migration into the wound bed. We have characterized integrin-type cell adhesion/migration receptors in human mucosal keratinocytes and examined their function in the regulation of type IV collagenase gene expression. Two major integrins of the β1 class, α2β1 and αβ1, were found to function as collagen and fibronectin receptors, respectively. Antibodies against β1 and α3 integrin subunits were found to stimulate the expression of the 92 kDa type IV collagenase severalfold in a dosedependent manner. Keratinocytes expressed also the 72 kDa type IV collagenase, the synthesis of which remained, however, unchanged in keratinocytes treated with anti-integrin antibodies. Stimulation of 92 kDa enzyme was found to be caused directly by antibody binding to integrins, since Fab-fragments of anti-β1 antibodies alone were able to induce collagenase expression in the absence of secondary, clustering antibodies. Antibodies against α2β1 integrin caused no stimulation. Keratinocytes seeded on different substrata (plastic, collagen, fibronectin, laminin, or vitronectin) showed equal induction of type IV collagenase expression. Expression of 92 kDa type IV collagenase could not be induced by peptides (GRGDS, GRGES), proteins (fibronectin, laminin, fibrinogen., albumin), or antibodies to fibronectin. We suggest that proteolytic processes around keratinocytes can be regulated by extracellular factors signalling through integrin-type receptors. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

Rat testicular cells in culture produce several metalloproteinases including type IV collagenases (Sang et al. Biol Reprod 1990; 43:946-955, 956-964). We have now investigated the regulation of testicular cell type IV collagenase and other metalloproteinases in vitro. Soluble laminin stimulated Sertoli cell type IV collagenase mRNA levels. However, three peptides corresponding to different domains of the laminin molecule (CSRAKQAASIKVASADR, FALRGDNP, CLQDGDVRV) did not influence type IV collagenase mRNA levels. Zymographic analysis of medium collected from these cultures revealed that neither soluble laminin nor any of the peptides influenced 72-kDa type IV collagenase protein levels. However, peptide FALRGDNP resulted in both, a selective increase in two higher molecular-weight metalloproteinases (83 kDa and 110 kDa and in an activation of the 72-kDa rat type IV collagenase. Interleukin-1, phorbol ester, testosterone, and FSH did not affect collagenase activation. Immunocytochemical studies demonstrated that the addition of soluble laminin resulted in a redistribution of type IV collagenase from intracellular vesicles to the cell-substrate region beneath the cells. Peptide FALRGDNP induced a change from a vesicular to peripheral plasma membrane type of staining pattern. Zymography of plasma membrane preparations demonstrated triton-soluble gelatinases of 76 kDa, 83 kDa, and 110 kDa and a triton-insoluble gelatinase of 225 kDa. These results indicate that testicular cell type IV collagenase mRNA levels, enzyme activation, and distribution are influenced by laminin and RGD-containing peptides. 相似文献

On the structure and chromosome location of the 72- and 92-kDa human type IV collagenase genes. 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The 72- and 92-kDa type IV collagenases are members of a group of secreted zinc metalloproteases. Two members of this family, collagenase and stromelysin, have previously been localized to the long arm of chromosome 11. Here we assign both of the two type IV collagenase genes to human chromosome 16. By sequencing, the 72-kDa gene is shown to consist of 13 exons, 3 more than have been reported for the other members of this gene family. The extra exons encode the amino acids of the fibronectin-like domain which has so far been found in only the 72- and 92-kDa type IV collagenase. The evolutionary relationship among the members of this gene family is discussed. 相似文献

Identification of type IV collagenase in rat testicular cell culture: influence of peritubular-Sertoli cell interactions 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
In the testis, interactions between peritubular cells (mesenchyme) and Sertoli cells (epithelium), together with proteolytic remodeling of the extracellular matrix, may play a central role in testicular development, morphogenesis, and spermatogenesis. In this study we demonstrate that a metalloproteinase of 72 kDa present in rat Sertoli cell and Sertoli-peritubular cell coculture medium is activated by p-aminophenylmercuric acetate (p-APMA) to a lower molecular mass form, indicating that it is likely to be a latent collagenase. Immunoblots using antibodies to three different domains of type IV collagenase show that the 72-kDa protease and a 76-kDa protease are type IV pro-collagenases. Sertoli cells cultured alone produce basal levels of type IV collagenase that can be immunolocalized in the cytoplasm of cultured cells. Peritubular cells cultured alone produce much less type IV collagenase. However, Sertoli and peritubular cells in coculture do produce type IV pro-collagenase, and in cultures consisting predominantly of peritubular cells, the activated form of type IV collagenase was detected by both zymography and immunoblotting. Cells growing during the transitional phase (from cell attachment to confluence) secrete more metalloproteinases than during the confluent phase. In contrast, plasminogen activator levels are unaffected by time in culture. These results show that rat testicular cells in culture produce and secrete type IV collagenase, and that the secretion and activation of this enzyme and other metalloproteases is regulated by the ratio of mesenchymal cells to epithelial cells and time in culture. 相似文献

Cleavage of type VII collagen by interstitial collagenase and type IV collagenase (gelatinase) derived from human skin 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Type VII collagen is the major structural protein of anchoring fibrils, which are believed to be critical for epidermal-dermal adhesion in the basement membrane zone of the skin. To elucidate possible mechanisms for the turnover of this protein, we examined the capacities of two proteases, human skin collagenase, which degrades interstitial collagens, and a protease with gelatinolytic and type IV collagenase activities, to cleave type VII collagen. At temperatures below the denaturation temperature, pepsin cleaves type VII collagen into products of approximately 95 and approximately 75 kDa. Human skin collagenase cleaved type VII collagen into two stable fragments of approximately 83 and approximately 80 kDa, and the type IV collagenase (gelatinase) produced a broad band of approximately 80 kDa as determined by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Cleavage of type VII collagen was linear with time and enzyme concentration for both enzymes. Although the Km values were similar for both enzymes, the catalytic rate of cleavage by type IV collagenase is much faster than by interstitial collagenase, and shows a greater rate of increase with increasing temperature. Sequence analysis of the cleavage products from both enzymes showed typical collagenous sequences, indicating a relaxation in the helical part of the type VII collagen molecule at physiological temperature which makes it susceptible to gelatinolytic degradation. Interstitial collagenase from both normal skin cells and cells from patients with recessive dystrophic epidermolysis bullosa, a severe hereditary blistering disease in which both an anchoring fibril defect and excessive production of collagenase can be observed, produced identical cleavage products from type VII collagen. These data suggest a pathophysiological link between increased enzyme levels and the observed decrease or absence of anchoring fibrils. 相似文献

Human neutrophils can be triggered to release the collagenolytic metalloenzymes, interstitial collagenase and 92 kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase. We have isolated and sequenced a 2.3 kb cDNA from a chronic granulocytic leukemia cDNA library that encodes for human neutrophil type IV collagenase. With the exception of one amino-acid substitution at position 280 (Arg → Gln), the deduced amino-acid sequences of neutrophil gelatinase are identical to the amino-acid sequences of the enzyme isolated from fibrosarcoma cells. Expression of the cDNA in E. coli yielded a 72 kDa protein having a gelatinolytic activity on zymogram gel. The recombinant enzyme was activated with APMA and trypsin. The activation was accompanied by a reduction in molecular weight of ≈ 10 kDa; such a reduction is characteristic of matrix metalloproteinases. The recombinant gelatinase cleaved native type V and XI collagens. Native type I collagen was not a substrate for the enzyme. These data suggest that native and recombinant 92 kDa type IV collagenase produced in E. coli have similar biochemical properties. The successful expression of the collagenase in a prokaryotic system will greatly facilitate the structure-function characterization of the enzyme and allow a more precise analysis of its physiological and pathological roles. 相似文献

Cleavage specificity of type IV collagenase (gelatinase) from human skin. Use of synthetic peptides as model substrates 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Type IV collagenase (gelatinase) has a marked substrate specificity for denatured collagen (gelatin). Cleavage site specificity of type IV collagenase from human skin was determined using small collagenous peptides with varied sequences around Gly-Leu or Gly-Ile. Type IV collagenase showed essentially the same order of preference for the peptide substrates as did interstitial collagenase. Both required a peptide with a minimum of six amino acid residues to demonstrate significant gelatinolytic activity and were able to cleave uncharged molecules more rapidly than charged molecules. the repeating Gly-X-Y-Gly sequence of collagen is not an absolute requirement for either enzyme since both digested AcPro-Leu-Gly-Ile-Leu-Ala-Ala-OC2H5 at 70% of the rate of the best substrate peptide, AcPro-Leu-Gly-Leu-Leu-Gly-OC2H5. Km and kcat (Vmax) values were determined for several of the peptides and for the native substrate. Turnover numbers with type IV collagenase were similar to those with interstitial collagenase (Weingarten, H., Martin, R., and Feder, J. (1985) Biochemistry 24, 6730-6734). However, the Km for all peptides investigated was approximately 10-fold lower for type IV collagenase than for interstitial collagenase. Because type IV collagenase does not cleave helical interstitial collagens, the data support the conclusion that secondary structure determines whether the peptide bond can be hydrolyzed at any potential cleavage site. 相似文献

Differential susceptibility of type X collagen to cleavage by two mammalian interstitial collagenases and 72-kDa type IV collagenase 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

We have studied the degradation of type X collagen by human skin fibroblast and rat uterus interstitial collagenases and human 72-kDa type IV collagenase. The interstitial collagenases attacked the native type X helix at two loci, cleaving residues Gly92-Leu93 and Gly420-Ile421, both scissions involving Gly-X bonds of Gly-X-Y-Z-A sequences. However, the human and rat interstitial enzymes displayed an opposite and substantial selectivity for each of these potential sites, with the uterine enzyme catalyzing the Gly420-Ile421 cleavage almost 20-fold faster than the Gly92-Leu93 locus. Values for enzyme-substrate affinity were approximately 1 microM indistinguishable from the corresponding Km values against type I collagen. Interestingly, in attacking type X collagen, both enzymes manifested kinetic properties intermediate between those characterizing the degradation of native and denatured collagen substrates. Thus, energy dependence of reaction velocity revealed a value of EA of 45 kcal, typical of native interstitial collagen substrates. However, the substitution of D2O for H2O in solvent buffer failed to slow type X collagenolysis significantly (kH/kD = 1.1), in contrast to the 50-70% slowing (kH/kD = 2-3) observed with native interstitial collagens. Since this lack of deuterium isotope effect is characteristic of interstitial collagenase cleavage of denatured collagens, we investigated the capacity of another metalloproteinase with substantial gelatinolytic activity, 72-kDa type IV collagenase, to degrade type X collagen. The 72-kDa type IV collagenase cleaved type X collagen at both 25 and 37 degrees C, and at loci in close proximity to those attacked by the interstitial enzymes. No further cleavages were observed at either temperature with type IV collagenase, and although values for kcat were not determined (due to associated tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2), catalytic rates appeared to be substantial in comparison to the interstitial enzymes. In contrast, type X collagen was completely resistant to proteolysis by stromelysin. Type X collagen thus appears to be highly unusual in its susceptibility to degradation by both interstitial collagenase and another member of the metalloproteinase gene family. 相似文献

Regulation of the activity of proteolytic enzymes is of major importance in the turnover of connective tissues. The search for physiologically relevant activation mechanisms of principal tissue-degrading enzymes, e.g., metalloproteinases, has therefore been of wide interest. We have now studied whether the initiating factor of the fibrinolytic system, urokinase plasminogen activator (u-PA), may also function in the early steps of activation of one of the metalloproteinases, the M(r) 72,000 gelatinase/type IV collagenase produced by cultured fibroblasts. Treatment of the secreted M(r) 72,000 proteinase by u-PA yielded a cleavage product of M(r) 62,000 as revealed by fluorography of radioactively labeled proteins as well as by gelatin zymography SDS-PAGE gels. The u-PA-catalyzed cleavage of the M(r) 72,000 proteinase was blocked by anti-u-PA antibodies, but was unaffected by the plasmin inhibitor aprotinin, thus indicating a specific action for the activator. On the contrary, the tissue activator of plasminogen, t-PA, did not cleave the type IV collagenase in similar assays. u-PA-catalyzed cleavage of recombinant type IV collagenase, produced in a baculovirus expression system, yielded a similar M(r) 62,000 activity in gelatinolysis assay. Zymograms of the isolated pericellular matrices of cultured fibroblasts also revealed M(r) 72,000 gelatinolytic polypeptide that was converted to an M(r) 62,000 form by u-PA. Both polypeptides were recognized in immunoblotting by antibodies against the gelatinase/type IV collagenase, suggesting immunological identity with the secreted enzyme. Thus the M(r) 72,000 gelatinase/type IV collagenase is not only secreted, but also deposited into the pericellular fibroblast matrix, and both forms are substrates for u-PA. The results suggest a new potential role for u-PA as a direct regulator of metalloproteinase-mediated extracellular proteolysis via the cleavage of the M(r) 72,000 gelatinase/type IV collagenase to an M(r) 62,000 form. 相似文献

Interleukin 4 inhibition of prostaglandin E2 synthesis blocks interstitial collagenase and 92-kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase production by human monocytes. 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

Activation of human monocytes results in the production of interstitial collagenase through a prostaglandin E2 (PGE2)-cAMP-dependent pathway. Inasmuch as interleukin 4 (IL-4) has been shown to inhibit PGE2 synthesis by monocytes, we examined the effect of IL-4 on the production of human monocyte interstitial collagenase. Additionally, we also assessed the effect of IL-4 on the production of 92-kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase and tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1 (TIMP-1) by monocytes. The inhibition of PGE2 synthesis by IL-4 resulted in decreased interstitial collagenase protein and activity that could be restored by exogenous PGE2 or dibutyryl cyclic AMP (Bt2cAMP). IL-4 also suppressed ConA-stimulated 92-kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase protein and zymogram enzyme activity that could be reversed by exogenous PGE2 or Bt2cAMP. Moreover, indomethacin suppressed the ConA-induced production of 92-kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase. These data demonstrate that, like monocyte interstitial collagenase, the conA-inducible monocyte 92-kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase is regulated through a PGE2-mediated cAMP-dependent pathway. In contrast to ConA stimulation, unstimulated monocytes released low levels of 92-kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase that were not affected by IL-4, PGE2, or Bt2cAMP, indicating that basal production of this enzyme is PGE2-cAMP independent. IL-4 inhibition of both collagenases was not a result of increased TIMP expression since Western analysis of 28.5-kDa TIMP-1 revealed that IL-4 did not alter the increased TIMP-1 protein in response to ConA. These data indicate that IL-4 may function in natural host regulation of connective tissue damage by monocytes. 相似文献

Three human matrix degrading leukocyte proteinases, type I collagenase, gelatinase and a new type IV collagenase were isolated in latent and active form. Activation of all three latent enzymes could be achieved by treatment with either organomercurials or with trypsin. In addition the 90 kDa latent type I-collagenase could be activated by disulfides, while a newly discovered 70 kDa latent form could be activated with organomercurials or with trypsin. The active type I collagenase was inhibited by gamma-anticollagenase from human serum (and the leukocyte type I collagenase inhibitor, while the newly found type IV collagenase was inhibited only partially. The complexes formed from gamma-anticollagenase with type I collagenase, i. e. latent enzyme, are not reactive site associated complexes. The binding is not of a substrate-like and competitive manner. After inhibition of the enzyme though inactive against its natural substrates it is still hydrolyzing the synthetic low molecular weight octapeptide DNP-Pro-Gln-Gly-Ile-Ala-Gly-Gln-D-Arg-OH. 相似文献

We have obtained evidence that rat Schwann cells synthesize and secrete type IV procollagen. Metabolic labeling of primary cultures of Schwann cells plus neurons and analysis by SDS PAGE revealed the presence of a closely spaced pair of polypeptides in the medium of these cultures that (a) were susceptible to digestion by purified bacterial collagenase, (b) co-migrated with type IV procollagen secreted by rat parietal endoderm cells, and (c) were specifically immunoprecipitated by antibodies against mouse type IV collagen. Limited pepsin digestion of metabolically labeled medium or cell layers produced a pepsin- resistant fragment characteristic of pro-alpha 1(IV) chains. Removal of neuronal cell bodies from the cultures immediately before labeling did not reduce the amount of type IV procollagen detected in the medium. This indicated that Schwann cells, not neurons, were responsible for synthesis of type IV procollagen. We believe type IV procollagen is a major constituent of the Schwann-cell extracellular matrix based upon (a) its presence in a detergent-insoluble matrix preparation, (b) its presence in the cell layer of the cultures in a state in which it can be removed by brief treatment with bacterial collagenase or trypsin, and (c) positive immunofluorescence of Schwann cell-neuron cultures with anti-type-IV collagen antibodies. Secretion of type IV procollagen was substantially reduced when Schwann cells were maintained in the absence of neurons. This observation may account for the previously reported finding that Schwann cells assemble a basal lamina only when co-cultured with neurons (Bunge, M. B., A. K. Williams, and P. M. Wood, 1982, Dev. Biol., 92:449). 相似文献

Type IV collagenases are secreted as latent 92 and 72 kDa proenzymes which are then activated extracellularly. The mechanisms by which they are activated in vivo are not clear. We have studied the activation of porcine endothelial cell type IV collagenases by tissue and plasma kallikrein, and found that tissue kallikrein was a very efficient activator of the 92 kDa type IV collagenase. Enzyme cleavage was observed at concentrations of tissue kallikrein as low as 0.1 μg/ml. Plasma kallikrein had no effect. By comparison, plasmin, which has been proposed to be the physiological activator of interstitial collagenase and stromelysin, and elastase were much less effective, and high concentrations (plasmin at 100–200 μg/ml and elastase at 20 μg/ml) were required to cause only a limited cleavage which was not associated with an increase in activity, as observed by the gelatin-gel lysis assay. In addition tissue kallikrein was found by immunohistochemistry to be present in the extracellular matrix of the intima of porcine aortic vessel wall. These findings suggest that tissue kallikrein can be a potential activator of the 92 kDa type IV collagenase in vivo. © 1993 Wiley-Liss, Inc. 相似文献

SV40-transformed human lung fibroblasts secrete a 92-kDa type IV collagenase which is identical to that secreted by normal human macrophages 总被引:60,自引:0,他引:60

We have reported that SV40-transformed human lung fibroblasts secrete a 92-kDa metalloprotease which is not detectable in the parental cell line IMR-90. We now present the complete structure of this enzyme along with the evidence that it is identical to the 92-kDa metalloprotease secreted by normal human alveolar macrophages, phorbol ester-differentiated monocytic leukemia U937 cells, fibrosarcoma HT1080 cells, and cultured human keratinocytes. A similar, perhaps identical, enzyme can be released by polymorphonuclear cells. The preproenzyme is synthesized as a polypeptide of predicted Mr 78,426 containing a 19 amino-acid-long signal peptide and secreted as a single 92,000 glycosylated proenzyme. The purified proenzyme complexes noncovalently with the tissue inhibitor of metalloproteases (TIMP) and can be activated by organomercurials. Activation with phenylmercuric chloride results in removal of 73 amino acids from the NH2 terminus of the proenzyme, yielding an active form capable of digesting native types IV and V collagen. The in vitro substrate specificity of the enzyme using these substrates was indistinguishable from that of the 72-kDa type IV collagenase. The 92-kDa type IV collagenase consists of five domains; the amino-terminal and zinc-binding domains shared by all members of the secreted metalloprotease gene family, the collagen-binding fibronectin-like domain also present in the 72-kDa type IV collagenase, a carboxyl-terminal hemopexin-like domain shared by all known enzymes of this family with the exception of PUMP-1, and a unique 54-amino-acid-long proline-rich domain homologous to the alpha 2 chain of type V collagen. 相似文献
