cDNA Sequence and mRNA Tissue Distribution of a Novel Human Matrix Metalloproteinase with a Potential Transmembrane Segment
1 Aug 1995
Abstract excerpt
The complementary DNA sequence of a novel matrix metalloproteinase was isolated from a human lung cDNA library. It consists of 3530 bp and encodes a polypeptide of 669 amino acids. In comparison to other matrix metalloproteinases, the deduced sequence of the amino acid chain exhibits closest similarity to a recently discovered membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase of 582 amino acids. Likewise, it is composed of...
