Description

Rabbit polyclonal to TIMP3 - Loop 1

Specificity

Ab39184 binds to TIMP3. It recognizes the glycosylated and unglycosylated forms of TIMP3, and works against native or reduced TIMP3. Ab39184 does not cross react with the other TIMP family members (TIMP1, TIMP2, TIMP4).

Applications

Show applications key

Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab39184 in the following tested applications.

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

Target

Function

Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. May form part of a tissue-specific acute response to remodeling stimuli. Known to act on MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7, MMP-9, MMP-13, MMP-14 and MMP-15.

Involvement in disease

Defects in TIMP3 are the cause of Sorsby fundus dystrophy (SFD) [MIM:136900]. SFD is a rare autosomal dominant macular disorder with an age of onset in the fourth decade. It is characterized by loss of central vision from subretinal neovascularization and atrophy of the ocular tissues. Generally, macular disciform degeneration develops in the patients eye within 6 months to 6 years.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the protease inhibitor I35 (TIMP) family.
Contains 1 NTR domain.

Cellular localization

Secreted > extracellular space > extracellular matrix.

ICC/IF image of ab39184 stained HeLa cells. The cells were 4% PFA fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab39184, 1µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Alexa Fluor® 488 goat anti-rabbit IgG (H+L) used at a 1/1000 dilution for 1h. Alexa Fluor® 594 WGA was used to label plasma membranes (red) at a 1/200 dilution for 1h. DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
