Overview

Product name

Anti-MMP3 antibody [4B7.3]
See all MMP3 products (22) ...

Description

Mouse monoclonal [4B7.3] to MMP3

Specificity

The antibody is specific to MMP3 (Stromelysin 1). It binds to both the reduced (the pro form as well as active forms) and the non reduced proteins. The antibody does not cross react with the other Stromelysin forms (Stromelysin 2 and Stromelysin 3), nor to the other MMP family members (MMP1, MMP2, MMP9, etc.).

Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab38907 in the following tested applications.

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

Target

Function

Can degrade fibronectin, laminin, gelatins of type I, III, IV, and V; collagens III, IV, X, and IX, and cartilage proteoglycans. Activates procollagenase.

Sequence similarities

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

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.

Cellular localization

Secreted > extracellular space > extracellular matrix.
