Active Recombinant Human MMP12

• Cat.No.: MMP12-157H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human MMP12 (NP_002417.2) (Gly106-Asn268), fused with a N-terminal Met, was expressed in E.coli.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: Non
• Protein Length: 106-268 a.a.
• Predicted N Terminal: Met
• Form: Lyophilized from sterile 10 mM Hepes, 2 mM CaCl2, 250 mM NaCl, pH 7.0, 5 % trehalose and mannitol are added as protectants before lyophilization.
• Bio-activity: Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate, Mca-PLGL-Dpa-AR-NH2. The specific activity is > 800 pmoles/min/µg.
