Characterisation of the collagen binding domain of gelatinase A : involvement of specific residues in the fibronectin type II modules in substrate recognition

The matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family of endopeptidases can collectively degrade many components of the extracellular matrix. Their proteolytic activities have been implicated in normal processes such as extracellular matrix turnover and certain pathological conditions such as periodontitis,...
