Recombinant Human MMP9, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: MMP9-77H
• Product Overview: MMP-9 Human Recombinant produced in E.Coli is single, a non-glycosylated, Polypeptide chain containing 338 amino acids fragment (113-450) corresponding to the catalytic domain of the protein, having a total molecular mass of 42.03kDa and fused with a 4.5kDa amino-terminal hexahistidine tag. The MMP-9 is purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.

Specification

• Description: Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Most MMP's are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The enzyme encoded by this gene degrades type IV and V collagens. Studies in rhesus monkeys suggest that the enzyme is involved in IL-8-induced mobilization of hematopoietic progenitor cells from bone marrow, and murine studies suggest a role in tumor-associated tissue remodeling.
