Active Recombinant Human MMP2 protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: MMP2-1121H
• Product Overview: Active Recombinant Human MMP2 protein(P08253)(30~660 aa), fused with N-terminal His tag, was expressed in HEK293.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: HEK293
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 30-660 aa
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH7.4, containing 0.01% SKL, 1mM DTT, 5% Trehalose and Proclin300.
• Bio-activity: MMP2 is a zinc-dependent enzymes capable of cleaving components of the extracellular matrix, which belongs to the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family .It is a gelatinase A, 72 kDa type IV collagenase which can hydrolyze gelatin under certain conditions. Gelatin zymography is mainly used for the detection of the gelatinases, MMP-2 and MMP-9 and It is extremely sensitive because levels of 10 pg of MMP-2 can already be detected .Briefly，various concentrations of MMP2 (50ng, 25ng, 13ng, 6.5ng, 3.3ng, 1.7ng) were denatured by SDS loading buffer, electrophoresed through sodium dodecylsulphate–polyacrylamide gel (SDS–PAGE; 10% gels) containing gelatin (1 mg/ml) with nonreducing conditions. After renaturation, incubation and CCB-stained, active MMP2 would hydrolyze gelatin nearby, which was indicated by the white binds on the gel. In this experiment we use trypsin as positive control.
• Molecular Mass: 72.6kDa
• Endotoxin: <1.0EU per 1μg (determined by the LAL method).
• Purity: > 95% as determined by SDS-PAGE.
