About Timp3

Summary

Predicted to enable metalloendopeptidase inhibitor activity; protease binding activity; and zinc ion binding activity. Involved in several processes, including negative regulation of proteolysis; response to estrogen; and response to folic acid. Located in cytoplasm. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Sorsby's fundus dystrophy; breast carcinoma; and urinary bladder Cancer. Orthologous to human TIMP3 (TIMP metallopeptidase inhibitor 3).
