However, the regulatory mechanisms remain largely unknown. Here, we report the identification of a calcium-dependent high molecular weight complex composed of MMP-9, MMP-3, MMP-2, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 1 (TIMP-1) and TIMP-2, identified by zymography and western blotting. Molecular sieve chromatography confirmed the presence of a complex of MMPs and TIMPs with an exclusion volume >670 kDa. Differential scanning calorimetry of the complex confirmed the existence of a macromolecular complex that unfolds with a broad transition; it is denatured over a wide range of temperatures and has a T(m) of 72 degrees C in the presence of Ca(2+). When denatured in the absence of Ca(2+), there were at least eight transitions with T(m)s that corresponded to pro-MMP-9, MMP-9, pro-MMP-3, MMP-3, pro-MMP-2, MMP-2, TIMP-1 and TIMP-2. Co-localization of the same molecular components was demonstrated by confocal microscopy using cell-depleted chorioallantoid membranes. The assembly and disassembly of the complex can be reproduced at physiological concentrations of Ca(2+). This complex provides a potential mechanism for the enzymatic regulation of MMPs, which may participate in connective tissue degradation leading to the rupture of the fetal membranes during labour."xsd:string |
