Summary of MMP13

This gene encodes for proteins that are involved in the breakdown of the extracellular matrix in normal bodily processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and malignant cell growth [R]

The Function of MMP13

Plays a role in the degradation of extracellular matrix proteins including fibrillar collagen, fibronectin, TNC and ACAN. Cleaves triple helical collagens, including type I, type II and type III collagen, but has the highest activity with soluble type II collagen. Can also degrade collagen type IV, type XIV and type X. May also function by activating or degrading key regulatory proteins, such as TGFB1 and CTGF. Plays a role in wound healing, tissue remodeling, cartilage degradation, bone development, bone mineralization and ossification. Required for normal embryonic bone development and ossification. Plays a role in the healing of bone fractures via endochondral ossification. Plays a role in wound healing, probably by a mechanism that involves proteolytic activation of TGFB1 and degradation of CTGF. Plays a role in keratinocyte migration during wound healing. May play a role in cell migration and in tumor cell invasion.

Advanced Summary

     From NCBI Gene: Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia, Missouri typeMetaphyseal chondrodysplasia, Spahr typeFrom UniProt: Metaphyseal anadysplasia 1 (MANDP1): A bone development disorder characterized by skeletal anomalies that resolve spontaneously with age. Clinical characteristics are evident from the first months of life and include slight shortness of stature and a mild varus deformity of the legs. Patients attain a normal stature in adolescence and show improvement or complete resolution of varus deformity of the legs and rhizomelic micromelia. [MIM:602111] Metaphyseal dysplasia, Spahr type (MDST): An autosomal recessive, rare disease characterized by moderate short stature, mild genua vara, and radiographic signs of metaphyseal dysplasia, but no biochemical signs of rickets. [MIM:250400] Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia Missouri type (SEMD-MO): A bone disease characterized by moderate to severe metaphyseal changes, mild epiphyseal involvement, rhizomelic shortening of the lower limbs with bowing of the femora and/or tibiae, coxa vara, genu varum and pear-shaped vertebrae in childhood. Epimetaphyseal changes improve with age. [MIM:602111]

     From NCBI Gene: This gene encodes a member of the peptidase M10 family of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). Proteins in this family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protease. This protease cleaves type II collagen more efficiently than types I and III. It may be involved in articular cartilage turnover and cartilage pathophysiology associated with osteoarthritis. Mutations in this gene are associated with metaphyseal anadysplasia. This gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes on chromosome 11.
