Cat.No.
CSC-CTK0370
Description
MMP-3 enzyme is also known as Stromelysin-1 or as Transin-1 which hydrolyzes natural collagen at physiological pH and temperature. 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 IL-1 beta.|Human recombinant MMP-3 produced in HEK293 cells is a proform of the Human MMP3 [Tyr18-Cys477 (Lys45Glu)] and fused with a ployhistide tag at the C-terminus. It has an MW of 52 kDa and has been purified by using proprietary chromatographic techniques.
