Beschreibung: Matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP2) is a Type IV collagenase, 72-kD, which is also known as gelatinase 1 and is a member of a group of secreted zinc metalloproteases 2 . The MMP2 gene is 17 kb long with 13 exons varying in size from 110 to 901 bp and 12 introns ranging from 175 to 4,350 bp 3 , located within a region of human chromosome 16q13. In addition,The extra exons encode the amino acids of the fibronectin-like domain which has so far been found in only the 72- and 92-kDa type IV collagenase 2 . MMP2,which has a critical role in the binding of progelatinase A and TIMP4 via the C-terminal hemopexin-like domain (C domain) 5 , is functionally associated on the surface of angiogenic blood vessels 6 . NOT only is a likely effector of endometrial menstrual breakdown 4 , MMP2 is also effector and regulator of the inflammatory response 7 . Moreover, MMP2 could be helpful in diagnosing Takayasu arteritis 8 .

Spezifität: Human, rat, mouse. No cross reactivity with other proteins.

Anwendungen

Applikationshinweise: Western blotting: At 1u/ml with the appropriate system to detect MMP2 in cells and tissues. Immunohistochemistry (Paraffin-embedded Sections): At 1-2u/ml to detect MMP2 in formalin fixed and paraffin embedded tissues. Immunohistochemistry(F) At 1-2 u/ml to detect MMP2 in formalin or acetone fixed tissues. Immunocytochemistry At 1-2u/ml to detect MMP2 in acetone fixed cell. Antigen retrieval by Pepsin and Trypsin is required. Other applications have not been tested. Optimal dilutions should be determined by end user.

Reinheit: Immunogen affinity purified.
