Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Most MMPs are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. However, MMP15 is a member of the membrane-type MMP (MT-MMP) subfamily, each member of this subfamily contains a potential transmembrane domain suggesting that these proteins are expressed at the cell surface rather than secreted.Synonyms: MMP15, MT-MMP 2, MT2-MMP, MT2MMP, MTMMP2, Matrix metalloproteinase-15, Membrane-type matrix metalloproteinase 2, Membrane-type-2 matrix metalloproteinase, SMCP-2
