Comparative studies on digestion of gelatin and collagen types IV and V by M MP-9 and MMP-2 indicated that both enzymes degrade these substrates into similar fragments, but the susceptibilities of laminin, fibronectin and reduced carboxymethylated transferrin to these two MMPs were sufficiently different to indicate differences in substrate specificities between these two closely related proteinases.
