Besides MMP-2 and MMP-3, putative NLSs in the sequences of MMP-1, MMP-8, MMP-10, MMP-13, MMP-19, MMP20, and MMP-23 and MT1-MMP, MT3-MMP,
MT4-MMP, and MT5-MMP were also detected [31], which suggests that nuclear entry may be a feature of many MMPs.
MT4-MMP has an unknown mechanism of involvement in breast carcinoma, being also expressed in breast cancer cell lines.
Membrane-type (MT)-MMPs consist of four transmembrane MMPs, MMP-14 (MT1-MMP), MMP-15 (MT2-MMP), MMP-16 (MT3-MMP), and MMP-24 (MT5MMP) and two glycosyl-phosphatidylinositol-anchored MMPs, MMP-17 (
MT4-MMP) and MMP-25 (MT6-MMP).
