Summary: This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases capable of degrading extracellular matrix proteins. This gene is expressed specifically in the ameloblasts and odontoblasts, and the encoded protein is an inactive zymogen that requires proteolytic removal of a N-terminal propeptide to become enzymatically active. Mice lacking the encoded protein display an amelogenesis imperfecta phenotype. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015]

increased cadherin cleavage by transgenic MMP20 in the wild type background releases excess beta-catenin, which translocates to ameloblast nuclei to promote cell migration/invasion. Therefore, MMP20 plays a role in normal ameloblast migration through tightly controlled Wnt signaling and MMP20 overexpression disrupts this process.

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
