About This Section

EntrezGene summary for TIMP4:
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. The secreted, netrin domain-containing protein encoded by this gene is
involved in regulation of platelet aggregation and recruitment and may play role in hormonal
regulation and endometrial tissue remodeling. [provided by RefSeq]

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: TIMP4_HUMAN, Q99727
Function: Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates
them. Known to act on MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7 and MMP-9
