'''Matrix Metalloproteinase 1'''(MMP1) also known as Interstitial collagenase is a zinc-dependent protease that degrades extracellular matrix proteins. Collagenases are enzymes, which cleave bonds in collagen. MMP1 belongs to the Matrix Metalloproteinase (MMP) family, which are involved in the regulation of cell-matrix composition by the breakdown of the extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes. These physiological processes many include disease activities such as arthritis and metastasis as well as normal human reproduction and embryonic development. | '''Matrix Metalloproteinase 1'''(MMP1) also known as Interstitial collagenase is a zinc-dependent protease that degrades extracellular matrix proteins.
