TIMP3
Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. May form part of a tissue-specific acute response to remodeling stimuli. Known to act on MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7, MMP-9, MMP-13, MMP-14 and MMP-15. Interacts with EFEMP1. Belongs to the protease inhibitor I35 (TIMP) family. Note: This description may include information from UniProtKB.
