Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab5709 in the following tested applications.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix, such as collagen type III and fibronectin. Activates progelatinase A. Involved in the matrix remodeling of blood vessels. Isoform short cleaves fibronectin and also collagen type III, but at lower rate. It has no effect on type I, II, IV and V collagen. However, upon interaction with CSPG4, it may be involved in degradation and invasion of type I collagen by melanoma cells.

Tissue specificity

Expressed in heart, brain, placenta, ovary and small intestine. Isoform Short is found in the ovary.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.
Contains 4 hemopexin-like domains.

Developmental stage

Expressed in tissues undergoing reconstruction. Present in fetal tissues, especially in brain. Expression seems to decline with advanced development.

Domain

The conserved cysteine present in the cysteine-switch motif binds the catalytic zinc ion, thus inhibiting the enzyme. The dissociation of the cysteine from the zinc ion upon the activation-peptide release activates the enzyme.

Post-translational
modifications

The precursor is cleaved by a furin endopeptidase.

Cellular localization

Cell membrane. Localized at the cell surface of melanoma cells and Secreted > extracellular space > extracellular matrix. Cell surface. Localized at the cell surface of melanoma cells.

Western blot - MMP16 antibody (ab5709)

PMA stimulated A431 cell lysate was probed with rabbit anti MMP16 at 1/500, a major band was detected. This band was abolished upon addition of the blocking peptide.
