Stromelysin-1 also known as matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MMP3 gene. The MMP3 gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3. [5] MMP-3 has an estimated molecular weight of 54 kDa. [6]
X-ray crystallographic structures of several MMP catalytic domains have shown that this domain is an oblate sphere measuring 35 x 30 x 30 Å (3.5 × 3 x 3 nm). The active site is a 20 Å (2 nm) groove that runs across the catalytic domain.
Hydroxypyrone-based MMP inhibitors are structurally corresponding to the pyrimidinetriones. A recent inhibitor is the compound 3-hydroxypyran-4-one nominated 868368-30-3. It is MMP-3 selective and its 0,0-bidentate chelation of zinc is the structural part proposed to be responsible for the MMP recognition. [7]
In many instances, the structural protein fold that characterises the clan or family may have lost its catalytic activity, yet retained its function in protein recognition and binding. [citation needed] Metalloproteases are the most diverse of the four main protease types, with more than 50 families classified to date.

Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), which catalyse extracellular matrix degradation, have N-terminal domains that resemble PGBD. Examples are gelatinase A (MMP-2), which degrades type IV collagen, [ 6 ] stromelysin-1 (MMP-3), which plays a role in arthritis and tumour invasion, [ 7 ] [ 8 ] and gelatinase B (MMP-9) secreted by neutrophils as part ...
Megan Davidhizar received two rubber ducks from her students during her first year teaching high school freshmen 16 years ago. She displayed them on her desk and other students saw the ducks and ...
Hemopexin-like domains have been found in two other types of proteins, vitronectin, [3] a cell adhesion and spreading factor found in plasma and tissues, and matrixins MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-9, MMP-10, MMP-11, MMP-12, MMP-14, MMP-15 and MMP-16, members of the matrix metalloproteinase family that cleave extracellular matrix constituents.
