Beschreibung

Spezifität

The antibody recognizes proteins of 72kDa and 66kDa which are identified as pro (latent) and active forms of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2; also known as 72 kDa collagenase IV or gelatinase A). Shows no cross-reactivity with pro and active forms of other MMPs. MMPs are proteolytic enzymes capable of degrading connective tissue components. Degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is an essential step in tumor invasion and metastasis. MMPs each have different substrate specificities within the ECM and are important in its degradation. MMP-2 mainly degrades type IV collagen and denatured collagens. MMP activity is modulated by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP). Imbalanced secretion of certain MMP or disturbances in the differential control of MMP by TIMP have been implicated in the invasive potential of malignant tumors.Cellular Localization: cytoplasmic
