Gene Summary

Gene Symbol TIMP4   Gene   UCSC   Ensembl
Gene name TIMP metallopeptidase inhibitor 4
Alternate names metalloproteinase inhibitor 4, TIMP-4, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase 4, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 4,
Gene location 3p25.2 (12159350: 12153067)     Exons: 5     NC_000003.12
Gene summary(Entrez) This gene belongs to the TIMP gene family. The proteins encoded by this gene family are inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of peptidases involved in degradation of the extracellular matrix. The secreted, netrin domain-containing protein encoded by this gene is involved in regulation of platelet aggregation and recruitment and may play role in hormonal regulation and endometrial tissue remodeling.
