 | The content of Matrilysin was merged into MMP7 on 15 August 2019. The former page's history now serves to provide attribution for that content in the latter page, and it must not be deleted as long as the latter page exists. For the discussion at that location, see its talk page. |
Proposed merge
[edit]As noted at both pages, matrilysin (or matrilysin-1, now that we've discovered MMP26) is just another (slightly old-fashioned) name for MMP-7. Matrilysin has very little text content at the moment, but I'm not familiar enough with the various templates and infoboxes it displays to easily tell which need to be merged here before converting it to a redirect.
I also can't see guidance at Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style/Medicine-related_articles#Article_titles or Wikipedia:Naming conventions (chemistry) on titles of articles about genes and their protein products, and don't know if there's a norm. I can say from the past few days of my research that, in recent papers, "MMP-7 (matrilysin)" on first mention and "MMP-7" or "MMP7" thereafter is the usual description.
