Active Recombinant Human MMP3, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: MMP3-200H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human MMP3 is a proform of the Human MMP3 [Tyr18-Cys477 (Lys45Glu)] and fused with a ployhistide tag at the C-terminus. It was expressed in HEK 293Cells.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: HEK293
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 18-477 a.a.
• Description: MMP-3 enzyme is also known as Stromelysin-1or as Transin-1 which hydrolyzes natural collagen at physiological pH and temperature. It dissolves the intervertebral nucleus pulposus and annulus fibrosus of Herniated Lumbar Intervertebral Disk. MMP-3 hydrolyzes components of the extracellular matrix like proteoglycan, laminin, fibronectin, gelatin and collagen types III, IV and IX. It also activates pro-MMP-9 and pro-MMP-8 and superactivates plasmin activated MMP-1. MMP-3 is secreted as a latent proenzyme and is activated by a variety of proteinases, e.g. plasmin, trypsin, chymotrypsin, cathepsin G or human neutrophil elastase. MMP-3 was found to be capable of activating the precursor of IL1-beta.
