研究背景
This gene belongs to the TIMP gene family. The proteins encoded by this gene family are inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of peptidases involved in degradation of the extracellular matrix. The secreted, netrin domain-containing protein encoded by this gene is involved in regulation of platelet aggregation and recruitment and may play role in hormonal regulation and endometrial tissue remodeling. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008],function:Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates them. Known to act on MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7 and MMP-9.,similarity:Belongs to the protease inhibitor I35 (TIMP) family.,similarity:Contains 1 NTR domain.,tissue specificity:Abundant in heart and present at low levels in many other tissues.,
