stromelysin

stromelysin
stro·me·lys·in (stro-melґĭ-sin) any of several matrix metalloproteinases that degrade proteoglycan, fibronectin, various types of collagen, and similar proteins. They are involved in breakdown of the extracellular matrix in normal physiologic processes (e.g., tissue remodeling) as well as in disease processes (e.g., metastasis). The group includes stromelysin 1 [EC 3.4.24.17], stromelysin 2 [EC 3.4.24.22], and stromelysin 3.
