Structural characterisation of inhibitory and non-inhibitory MMP-9–TIMP-1 complexes and implications for regulatory mechanisms of MMP-9
Abstract MMP-9 plays a number of important physiological functions but is also responsible for many pathological processes, including cancer invasion, metastasis, and angiogenesis. It is, therefore, crucial to understand its enzymatic activity, including activation and inhibition mechanisms. This en...
