Product Details
Alternative Name: | Matrix metalloproteinase 11, Stromelysin-3 |
|
MW: | 19.3 kDa |
|
Source: | Produced in E. coli. Active Matrix Metalloproteinase-11 (MMP-11, Stromelysin-3) catalytic domain from human cDNA. The enzyme consists of the catalytic domain of human MMP-11 (Phe98-Ser266, NM_005940) with a C-terminal purification tag. MMPs lacking this domain cannot cleave native collagens; however, activity toward other targets such as gelatin, casein, or peptide substrates is unaffected. It may be an important link between obesity and cancer. |
|
UniProt ID: | P24347 |
|
Formulation: | Liquid. In 50mM TRIS, 5mM CaCl2, 300mM NaCl, 20µM ZnCl2, 0.5% Brij-35, and 30% glycerol. |
|
Purity: | ≥95% (SDS-PAGE) |
|
Purity Detail: | Purified by multi-step chromatography. |
|
Specific Activity: | Due to its unusual substrate preferences [A(A/Q)(N/A)~(L/Y)(T/V/M/R)(R/K), or G(G/A)E~LR5], MMP-11 cleaves MMP peptide substrates such as Prod. No. BML-P125, BML-P126, and BML-P132 extremely slowly (several hours yield very little product). Therefore, the activity of each lot of MMP-11 is verified by digestion of macromolecules. |
|
Application Notes: | Useful to study enzyme kinetics, cleave target substrates, and screen for inhibitors. |
|
Shipping: | Dry Ice |
|
Long Term Storage: | -80°C |
|
Scientific Background: | MMP-11 may be a link between obesity and cancer. |
|
Regulatory Status: | RUO - Research Use Only |
