Specificity of Binding with Matrix Metalloproteinases

Abstract: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) regulate a wide range of biological functions; hence, they have invited great attention for the studies on their structures and functions, and since their overactivation leads to several diseases, the design and discovery of their potent inhibitors have become the need of the day. Since there have been so far discovered 28 different types of human MMPs, the specificity of binding of inhibitors with each different MMP needs special attention. The chapter presents the X-ray cryst… Show more

“…Human neutrophils produce three metalloproteinases: MMP-8 (collagenase), MMP-9 (gelatinase), and MMP-25 (leukolysin or MT6-MMP). The first two are soluble and membrane-associated, whereas MMP-25 is only membraneassociated (59,60). We determined if commercially available, purified MMP-8 and/or MMP-9 could degrade LLO.…”

“…Eight residue positions (T190, F198, Y203, F204, N229, N231, S251, and F260) were selected for Ala substitution, based on the following criteria: (i) distinct in MMP-14 relative to MMP-2 and MMP-9 (Fig. S8A), (ii) within a distance of 15 Å from the catalytic Zn 2+ , (iii) exhibiting an exposed respective side chain, and (iv) near the S1â€Č subsite (40,41). The resulting MMP-14 mutants were expressed in the periplasmic space of E. coli (42).…”

“…They are controlled by hormones, growth factors and cytokines and are excreted by a variety of tissue and pro-inflammatory cells, i.e., fibroblasts, osteoblasts, endothelial cells, macrophages, neutrophils, lymphocytes [15]. So far 28 types of human matrix metalloproteinases have been recognized and been classified as collagenases, gelatinases, stromelysins, matrilysins, membraneType [16]. Researches of MI have showed increased levels of several MMPs.…”
