Protein Domain : IPR028718

Type:  Family Name:  Macrophage metalloelastase
Description:  Macrophage metalloelastase (also known as matrix metalloproteinase-12, MMP12) was first identified as a secreted protein from mouse peritoneal macrophages through its elastase activity []. It shares many features with typical members of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family including its domain structure and its ability to degrade the extracellular matrix components []. MMP12 regulates fibrosis in several models of tissue injury and has a protective effect on corneal fibrosis during wound repair through regulation of immune cell infiltration and angiogenesis []. Short Name:  MMP12
