Gene Information

human ... MMP9(4318)

General description

Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is a zinc-dependent proteinase which is also known as 92kDa gelatinase-B. It is expressed by various cells like granulocytes and mononuclear cells. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 20q11.2-q13.1 and has 13 exons.

Specificity

By immunoblotting against the reduced protein, the antibody reacts with bands at 92 kDa and 88 kDa (the pro-form and active form). The antibody performs best on reduced proteins, but will react with non-reduced MMP-9. When used on reduced samples from tissue culture media, the antibody also recognizes a band at 65 kDa, which may be removed by enriching the gelatinase on gelatin-agarose.

Immunogen

synthetic peptide corresponding to the C-terminal end of human matrix metalloproteinase-9 (gelatinase-B).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) has been studied as a biomarker of nervous tissue inflammation in multiple sclerosis (MS).

Physical form

Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 50% glycerol and 0.05% sodium azide.

Chronic myeloproliferative disorders such as polycythemia vera (PV), essential thrombocytosis (ET), and idiopathic myelofibrosis arise from clonal proliferation of neoplastic stem cells in the bone marrow. Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) are a family of zinc-dependent endopeptidases that have potential to degrade

Matrix metalloproteinases are notable contributors to neuroinflammation and blood-brain barrier disruption in multiple sclerosis (MS). The goal of this study was to determine the serum levels of matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9), matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), and their tissue inhibitors (TIMP-1) and (TIMP-2)
