Subcellular location

Subcellular Location:
Secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix

Function

Function:
Degrades amelogenin, the major protein component of the enamel matrix and two of the macromolecules characterizing the cartilage extracellular matrix: aggrecan and the cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP). May play a central role in tooth enamel formation.
Catalytic Activity:
Cleaves aggrecan at the 360-Asn-|-Phe-361 site.
Cofactor:
COFACTOR: Name=Zn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29105;
Active Site:
ACT_SITE 227 227
