Chicken embryo fibroblasts (CEF) transformed by Rous sarcoma virus invade the extracellular matrix (ECM) using plasma membrane protrusions, termed invadopodia, that contact and dissolve the matrix. Normal cells neither form invadopodia nor degrade the ECM. Here we show that cells expressing invadopodia degrade and enter into a fibronectin-rich matrix produced by normal fibroblasts. Within 6 h after seeding onto the matrix, the invasive cells create an area devoid of matrix fibrils surrounding the cell body. Proteolysis mediates this matrix clearing because sevenfold more radiolabeled matrix is released into the growth media by the transformed cells relative to the normal cells. In addition to this assembled matrix, transformed cells were grown on thin layers of purified ECM proteins, revealing that invadopodia can degrade fibronectin, collagen type I, collagen type IV, and laminin. A 160 kDa protease that is extracted from transformed cells by Triton X-114 partitions into the detergent phase and is prominent in ventral plasma membranes that contact the ECM suggesting that it is a membrane associated protease.
