About Mmp8

Chromosome 9: 7,558,457-7,568,486 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001002.3

This gene has 1 transcript (splice variant), 111 orthologues, 23 paralogues and is associated with 10 phenotypes. Biased expression in liver E18 (RPKM 19.) and liver E14.5 (RPKM .8).

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family of extracellular matrix-degrading Enzymes that are involved in tissue remodeling, wound repair, progression of atherosclerosis and tumor invasion. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, zinc-dependent endopeptidase Enzyme that degrades types I, II and III collagens. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit abnormalities in the inflammatory responses to various agents. This gene is located in a cluster of Other matrix metalloproteinase genes on chromosome 9.
