Abstract: | Human matrix metalloproteinase 7 (MMP-7) is the smallest matrix metalloproteinase. It plays important roles in tumour invasion and metastasis. 8-Anilinonaphthalene 1-sulphonate (ANS) is a fluorescent probe widely used for the analysis of proteins. It emits large fluorescence energy when its anilinonaphthalene group binds with hydrophobic regions of protein. In this study, we analysed the interaction of ANS and MMP-7. At pH 4.5-9.5, ANS inhibited MMP-7 activity in the hydrolysis of (7-methoxycoumarin-4-yl)acetyl-L-Pro-L-Leu-Gly-L-Leu-[N(3)-(2,4-dinitrophenyl)-L-2,3-diaminopropionyl]-L-Ala-L-Arg-NH(2). The inhibition was a non-competitive manner and depended on the time for pre-incubation of ANS and MMP-7. At pH 4.5-9.5, the fluorescence of ANS was not changed by the addition of MMP-7. At pH 3.5, MMP-7 lacked activity, and the fluorescence of ANS was increased by the addition of MMP-7. These results suggest that at pH 4.5-9.5, the sulphonic group of ANS binds with MMP-7 through electrostatic interaction, whereas at pH 3.5, the anilinonaphthalene group of ANS binds with MMP-7 through hydrophobic interaction. |
