The proenzyme forms of MMP-2 (gelatinase A) and MMP-9 (gelatinase B) are found in complex with tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases (designated proMMP-2/ TIMP-2 and proMMP-9/TIMP-1, respectively).     ///    "To determine whether the enhanced fluorescence quenching was unique to the activated proMMP-2/TIMP-2 complex, similar experiments were performed using MMP-1, MMP-3, and MMP-9/TIMP-1 complex.
