Diagram of the structure and activation of the MMP proenzyme (on the example of MMP-9). The domains present in the gelatinases are: propeptide, a catalytic domain with a zinc atom (Zn), a hinge region and a hemopexin-like domain. A – non-proteolytic activation using, for example, mercury (Hg) compounds or some denaturing compounds. During this process, there is no disconnection of the propeptide (no change in mass in relation to the proenzyme). If the propeptide activating agent is removed, the propeptide rejoins the active site preventing catalysis (“cysteine switch”). B – proteolytic activation involves the detachment of the propeptide. It is an irreversible process associated with a reduction in the mass of the enzyme by the mass of the propeptide
