Recombinant Human MMP2 protein, His-tagged

• Cat.No.: MMP2-4564H
• Product Overview: Recombinant Human MMP2 protein(Tyr110~Cys660), fused with N-terminal His tag, was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E. coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: 110-660 aa
• Form: 20mM Tris, 150mM NaCl, pH8.0, containing 0.01% sarcosyl, 5% trehalose.
• Bio-activity: Mechanism: 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, 72kDa 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 10pg of MMP-2 can already be detected. Briefly, various concentrations of MMP2 (500ng, 125ng, 63ng, 32ng, 16ng) were denatured by SDS loading buffer, electrophoresed through sodium dodecylsulphate-polyacrylamide gel (SDS-PAGE; 10% gels) containing gelatin (1mg/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 heat-denatured MMP2 protein as negative control, and blood sample as positive control.
