NCBI Description

This gene belongs to the TIMP gene family. The proteins encoded by this gene family are inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of peptidases involved in degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Expression of this gene is induced in response to mitogenic stimulation and this netrin domain-containing protein is localized to the ECM. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant disorder Sorsby's fundus dystrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]

Uniprot Description

Function: Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. May form part of a tissue-specific acute response to remodeling stimuli. Known to act on MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7, MMP-9, MMP-13, MMP-14 and MMP-15.

Subunit structure: Interacts with EFEMP1. Ref.16

Subcellular location: Secreted › extracellular space › extracellular matrix.

Involvement in disease: Sorsby fundus dystrophy (SFD) [MIM:136900]: Rare autosomal dominant macular disorder with an age of onset in the fourth decade. It is characterized by loss of central vision from subretinal neovascularization and atrophy of the ocular tissues. Generally, macular disciform degeneration develops in the patients eye within 6 months to 6 years.Note: The disease is caused by mutations affecting the gene represented in this entry.

Sequence similarities: Belongs to the protease inhibitor I35 (TIMP) family. [View classification]Contains 1 NTR domain.
