[matrix metalloproteinase-26] MMP-26 cDNA has been cloned from fetal cDNA and is expressed specifically in placenta (de Coignac et al, 2000). The protein (261 amino acids) is known also as matrilysin-2 (Marchenko et al, 2001; Uria and Lopez-Otin, 2000). Park et al (2000) have cloned the cDNA for the same protein, which they refer to as endometase [endometrial tumor-derived metalloproteinase].
MMP-26 shows 51.8 % identity with matrilysin and includes only the minimal characteristic features of the protein family of matrix metalloproteinases (signal peptide, prodomain, catalytic domain
