Gene Gene information from NCBI Gene database.
Entrez ID 4317
Gene name Matrix metallopeptidase 8
Gene symbol MMP8
Synonyms (NCBI Gene)
CLG1HNCMMP-8PMNL-CL
Chromosome 11
Chromosome location 11q22.2
Summary This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family of proteins. These proteins are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such
