| Description : |
This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family that plays a role in wound healing, skeletal development and bone remodeling. The encoded protein is activated by the removal of an N-terminal activation peptide to generate a zinc-dependent endopeptidase enzyme that can cleave various native collagens, including types I - IV, X and XIV. Mice lacking the encoded protein display profound defects in growth plate cartilage as well as a delay in the endochondral bone development. Lack of the encoded protein also impairs the wound healing process due to reduced keratinocyte migration and vascular density at the wound site. This gene is located in a cluster of other matrix metalloproteinase genes on chromosome 9. |

| Applications : |
SDS-PAGE; WB; ELISA; IP; CoIP; Reporter Assays; Purification; Amine Reactive Labeling. |
| Stability : |
The thermal stability is described by the loss rate. The loss rate was determined by accelerated thermal degradation test, that is, incubate the protein at 37°C for 48h, and no obvious degradation and precipitation were observed. The loss rate is less than 5% within the expiration date under appropriate storage condition. |
