Remodeling of fibrillar collagen in mouse tissues has been widely attributed to the activity of collagenase-3 (matrix metalloproteinase-13 (MMP-13)), the main collagenase identified in this species. This proposal has been largely based on the repeatedly unproductive attempts to detect the presence in murine tissues of interstitial collagenase (MMP-1), a major collagenase in many species, including humans. In this work, we have performed an extensive screening of murine genomic and cDNA libraries using as probe the full-length cDNA for human MMP-1. We report the identification of two novel members of the MMP gene family which are contained within the cluster of MMP genes located at murine chromosome 9. The isolated cDNAs contain open reading frames of 464 and 463 amino acids and are 82% identical, displaying all structural features characteristic of archetypal MMPs. Comparison for sequence similarities revealed that the highest percentage of identities was found with human interstitial collagenase (MMP-1). The new proteins were tentatively called Mcol-A and Mcol-B (Murine collagenase-like A and B). Analysis of the enzymatic activity of the recombinant proteins revealed that both are catalytically autoactivable but only Mcol-A is able to degrade synthetic peptides and type I and II fibrillar collagen. Both Mcol-A and Mcol-B genes are located in the A1-A2 region of mouse chromosome 9, Mcol-A occupying a position syntenic to the human MMP-1 locus at 11q22. Analysis of the expression of these novel MMPs in murine tissues revealed their predominant presence during mouse embryogenesis, particularly in mouse trophoblast giant cells. According to their structural and functional characteristics, we propose that at least one of these novel members of the MMP family, Mcol-A, may play roles as interstitial collagenase in murine tissues and could represent a true orthologue of human MMP-1.
