| UniProt functional annotation for P03956 | |||
| UniProt code: P03956. |
| Organism: | Homo sapiens (Human). | |
| Taxonomy: | Eukaryota; Metazoa; Chordata; Craniata; Vertebrata; Euteleostomi; Mammalia; Eutheria; Euarchontoglires; Primates; Haplorrhini; Catarrhini; Hominidae; Homo. | |
| Function: | Cleaves collagens of types I, II, and III at one site in the helical domain. Also cleaves collagens of types VII and X (PubMed:2557822, PubMed:2153297, PubMed:1645757). In case of HIV infection, interacts and cleaves the secreted viral Tat protein, leading to a decrease in neuronal Tat's mediated neurotoxicity (PubMed:16807369). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:1645757, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16807369, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2153297, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2557822}. | |
| Catalytic activity: | Reaction=Cleavage of the triple helix of collagen at about three- quarters of the length of the molecule from the N-terminus, at 775- Gly-|-Ile-776 in the alpha-1(I) chain. Cleaves synthetic substrates and alpha-macroglobulins at bonds where P1' is a hydrophobic residue.; EC=3.4.24.7; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:1645757, ECO:0000269|PubMed:16807369, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2153297, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2557822}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Ca(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29108; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:7656013, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8031754, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8090713, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8278810, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9484219}; Note=Binds 4 Ca(2+) ions per subunit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7656013, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8031754, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8090713, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8278810, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9484219}; | |
| Cofactor: | Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105; Evidence={ECO:0000269|PubMed:7656013, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8031754, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8090713, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8278810, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9484219}; Note=Binds 2 Zn(2+) ions per subunit. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:7656013, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8031754, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8090713, ECO:0000269|PubMed:8278810, ECO:0000269|PubMed:9484219}; | |
| Activity regulation: | Can be activated without removal of the activation peptide. | |
| Subunit: | (Microbial infection) Interacts with HIV-1 Tat. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:16807369}. | |
| Subcellular location: | Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix {ECO:0000305|PubMed:2167156}. | |
| Domain: | There are two distinct domains in this protein; the catalytic N-terminal, and the C-terminal which is involved in substrate specificity and in binding TIMP (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases). | |
| Domain: | The conserved cysteine present in the cysteine-switch motif binds the catalytic zinc ion, thus inhibiting the enzyme. The dissociation of the cysteine from the zinc ion upon the activation- peptide release activates the enzyme. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:15611040, ECO:0000269|PubMed:2153297}. | |
| Ptm: | Undergoes autolytic cleavage to two major forms (22 kDa and 27 kDa). A minor form (25 kDa) is the glycosylated form of the 22 kDa form. The 27 kDa form has no activity while the 22/25 kDa form can act as activator for collagenase. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10092871}. | |
| Ptm: | Tyrosine phosphorylated in platelets by PKDCC/VLK. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:25171405}. | |
| Similarity: | Belongs to the peptidase M10A family. {ECO:0000305}. | |
