Genome-wide identification of Xenopus matrix metalloproteinases: conservation and unique duplications in amphibians
BACKGROUND: Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are members of the superfamily of Zn(2+ )dependent extracellular or membrane-bound endopeptidases which have been implicated to play critical roles in vertebrate development and human pathogenesis. A number of MMP genes have been found to be upregulated i...
