- Summary
- Matrix metalloproteinases are a family of related enzymes with the combined ability to degrade essentially all components of the extracellular matrix. The chapters in this book thoroughly cover the structure, regulation, and function of matrix metalloproteinases and provide information on the latest strategies to inhibit enzyme activity.
- This work will be an indispensable reference tool for investigators with an interest in extracellular matrix biology, matrix turnover, enzymology and biochemistry of proteinases, developmental biology, pathology, and therapeutic interventions.
