This protease has a molecular weight of approximately 66 kDa and consists of various structural domains including a catalytic domain and a hinge region. MMP14 is expressed in many tissues including the stromal and cancer cells where it facilitates cell migration and tissue remodeling.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nMMP14 influences extracellular matrix degradation enabling cellular invasion and migration. It exists as a part of macromolecular complexes at the cell surface interacting with other metalloproteinases. This interaction assists in the activation of other MMPs such as pro-MMP2 which further amplify matrix remodeling activities. The hinge region of MMP14 lends flexibility allowing it to effectively engage with substrate proteins.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nMMP14 significantly affects cell signaling and tissue remodeling pathways. One critical pathway involves the activation of pro-MMP2 which is dependent on MMP14's proteolytic activity. MMP14 also plays a role in the regulation of cell proliferation and apoptosis through its interaction with proteins such as TIMP-2. This relationship between MMP14 and other regulatory proteins emphasizes its functional integration within major biological networks.\u003cbr\u003e\nHigh MMP14 levels correlate strongly with cancer progression especially in cancers such as breast cancer and melanoma. The ability of MMP14 to degrade the extracellular matrix facilitates tumor invasion and metastasis. Through its regulatory activities MMP14 connects with other proteins like VEGF influencing angiogenesis within tumor microenvironments. Additionally MMP14 involvement in arthritic conditions highlights its role in joint degradation processes worsening the disease through augmented cartilage breakdown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46851617816745,"sku":"ab271840","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab271840","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
