Human 92-kDa type IV collagenase/gelatinase (MMP9) has been expressed in insect cells and secreted into the cell medium via a baculovirus expression system. The expression level of the proenzyme from Trichoplusia ni cells was estimated to be > = 300 mg/L of cell medium. The recombinant protein was purified in a single step using heparin-affinity chromatography with an overall yield of ca. 70%. The purified zymogen could be activated in vitro using 4-aminophenylmercuric acetate to yield an active protease. Kinetic analysis of the activated recombinant enzyme demonstrates that this material is comparable to activated MMP9 from natural human sources. The recombinant enzyme provides a useful source of protein for a variety of biochemical and biophysical studies aimed at elucidating the structure and function of human MMP9.
