Details

Target of this antibody:
MMP-2
Alternative names of antibody target:
MMP2, MMP-2, MMP 2, Matrix metalloproteinase-2, Matrix metalloproteinase 2, Gelatinase A, TBE-1
Background information:
The mammalian Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) degrade extracellular matrix in physiological and pathological processes. After cleavage of a single peptide domain of about 20 amino acids, the MMPs are secreted in latent forms. Upon activation, the N-terminal propeptide domain is cleaved to generate the active forms of MMP. MMP-2 (72 kDa type IV collagenase, Gelatinase-A) contains the basic structure of propeptide, catalytic, and hemopexin domains. It is an important proteinase in tissue remodeling.
