Summary
Enables metallopeptidase activity. Involved in basement membrane disassembly. Located in cell surface. Is expressed in several structures, including P6.paal; P6.paar; P6.papl; gonad; and vulval cell. Orthologous to human MMP15 (matrix metallopeptidase 15) and MMP24 (matrix metallopeptidase 24). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jan 2025]
