Additional Info
Post Translational Modifications
The precursor is cleaved by a furin endopeptidase. Tyrosine phosphorylated by PKDCC/VLK.
Function
Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix such as collagen. Essential for pericellular collagenolysis and modeling of skeletal and extraskeletal connective tissues during development. Activates progelatinase A/MMP2, thereby acting as a positive regulator of cell growth and migration. Involved in the formation of the fibrovascular tissues in association with pro-MMP2. May be involved in actin cytoskeleton reorganization by cleaving PTK7. Acts as a regulator of Notch signaling by mediating cleavage and inhibition of DLL1. Cleaves ADGRB1 to release vasculostatin-40 which inhibits angiogenesis. Acts as a negative regulator of the GDF15-GFRAL aversive response by mediating cleavage and inactivation of GFRAL.
