Function
[MMP12_HUMAN] May be involved in tissue injury and remodeling. Has significant elastolytic activity. Can accept large and small amino acids at the P1' site, but has a preference for leucine. Aromatic or hydrophobic residues are preferred at the P1 site, with small hydrophobic residues (preferably alanine) occupying P3.
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The molecular determinants responsible for the potency of the RXP470.1 phosphinic peptide inhibitor towards matrix metalloprotease-12 (MMP-12) remain elusive. To address this issue, structure-activity study, X-ray crystallography and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) experiments were performed. The crystal structure of MMP-12/inhibitor complex (1.15 A) reveals that the inhibitor establishes multiple interactions with the MMP-12 active site, with its long P1' side chain filling most part of the S1' deep cavity. ITC experiments indicate that the binding of this inhibitor to MMP-12 is mostly entropy driven (DeltaG degrees = -13.1 kcal/mol, DeltaH degrees = -2.53 kcal/mol and -TDeltaS degrees = -10.60 kcal/mol) and involves a proton uptake from the buffer. Comparing phosphinic versus hydroxamate inhibitors reveals that the chelation of the zinc ion is slightly different, leading the inhibitor backbone to adopt a position in which the hydrogen bonding with the MMP-12 active site is less favorable in phosphinic inhibitor, while maintaining high affinity.
