[matrix metalloproteinase-9] This enzyme (EC3.4.24.35) is known variously as gelatinase B, 92 kDa gelatinase, 92 kDa type IV collagenase, or PMNL gelatinase (polymorphonuclear leukocyte gelatinase), gelatinase type IV-B, collagenase type 5 (collagenase-5; abbr. also CL-5).
Yu and Woessner (2000) have reported that MMP-9 is tightly bound to tissues and utilizes heparan sulfate proteoglycans as extracellular docking molecules. Bar-Or et al (2003) have observed high expression of the metalloproteinase in monocytes. Noirey et al (2002) have reported that MMP-9 is produced by
