Recommended dilutions
WB: 1/1000 when using colorimetric substrates such as BCIP/NBT - 1/5000 for chemiluminescent substrates. Detects a band of approximately 110 kDa in reduced Western Blots (due to glycosylation), the truncated form at 67 kDa (major band) and breakdown products at 39 kDa in cell lysates. (predicted molecular weight: 97 kDa). Dilution optimised using Chromogenic detection. Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Relevance 

ADAMTS proteases are secreted enzymes containing a prometalloprotease domain of the reprolysin type. The ADAMTS proteases function in processing of procollagens and von Willebrand factor as well as catabolism of aggrecan, versican and brevican. They have been demonstrated to have important roles in connective tissue organization, coagulation, inflammation, arthritis, angiogenesis and cell migration.

A member of the metalloproteinase family containing disintegrin like domains (ADAMs), the function of ADAMTS8 is still poorly understood. ADAMTS8 contains the canonical HExxHxxxxxH zinc metalloproteinase motif, and has been shown to be proteolytically active on a range of substrates. ADAMTS8 is inhibited by the endogenous MMP inhibitors, TIMP1, 2, 3 and 4, but most efficiently by TIMP3. In addition to the metalloprotease domain, ADAMTS8 has a propeptide domain, a Prohormone Convertase (PC, furin) cleavage site, a cysteine rich domain and thrombospondin 1 like domains.
