Immunogen
A synthetic peptide from human pro MMP9 conjugated to an immunogenic carrier protein was used as the antigen.
Accession
Also known
pro Matrix Metalloproteinase-9, MMP-9, 92 kDa gelatinase, 92 kDa type IV collagenase, Gelatinase B, CLG4B
Target
FUNCTION: May play an essential role in local proteolysis of the extracellular matrix and in leukocyte migration. Could play a role in bone osteoclastic resorption. Cleaves KiSS1 at a Gly-|-Leu bond. Cleaves type IV and type V collagen into large C-terminal three quarter fragments and shorter N-terminal one quarter fragments. Degrades fibronectin but not laminin or Pz-peptide.
SUBCELLULAR LOCATION: Secreted ⺠extracellular space ⺠extracellular matrix
TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Produced by normal alveolar macrophages and granulocytes. MMP9 is constitutively expressed by some tumor cell lines including U937, HT1080, HL60 but not by most quiescent cells and tissues.
Storage
Maintain the lyophilised/reconstituted antibodies frozen at -20°C for long term storage and refrigerated at 2-8°C for a shorter term. When reconstituting, glycerol (1:1) may be added for an additional stability. Avoid freeze and thaw cycles.
Expiry Date
12 months after reconstitution
