Specifications
Target Information
MMP-20 is tooth-specific and is expressed by cells of different developmental origins, including epithelial ameloblasts and mesenchymal odontoblasts. Its primary function in enamel is to cleave enamel matrix proteins at specific cleavage sites. Bovine Matrix Metalloproteinase-20 is encoded by the MMP20 gene in cattle. It is secreted by ameloblasts, and is previously shown to hydrolyze recombinant amelogenin. Research has shown that MMP20 can be autoactivated, and activated MMP20 has a functional role in the initial cleavage of amelogenin.
