See all MMP3 products (22) ...
Rabbit polyclonal to MMP3 - Hinge region
ab38916 recognises the Hinge region of MMP3. It 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). ab38916 does not recognize the 21 Kd active form.
Reacts with

Western blot - MMP3 antibody (ab38916)
(enlarge)
Our Abpromise guarantee covers the use of ab38916 in the following tested applications.
The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
WB: 1/1000 when using colorimetric substrates such as BCIP/NBT - 1/5000 when using chemiluminescent substrates. Predicted molecular weight: 54 kDa. But note that when used against the reduced protein, ab38916 identifies bands at 59 Kd and 57 Kd (the pro-form), as well as active forms. The antibody does not recognize the 21 Kd active form. Stromelysin levels in quiescent cells and tissues are minimal, and stimulation or protein concentration is often needed to visualize the bands. Dilution optimised using Chromogenic detection. Not yet tested in other applications. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.
Can degrade fibronectin, laminin, gelatins of type I, III, IV, and V; collagens III, IV, X, and IX, and cartilage proteoglycans. Activates procollagenase.
Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.
Contains 4 hemopexin-like domains.
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.

Western blot - MMP3 antibody (ab38916)

All lanes : Anti-MMP3 antibody - Hinge region (ab38916) at 1/1000 dilution
Lane 1 : human MMP3
Lane 2 : cell medium from untreated human chondrosarcoma
Lane 3 : cell medium from TPA treated human chondrosarcoma
Performed under reducing conditions.
Predicted band size : 54 kDa
Observed band size : 45,57,59 kDa (why is the actual band size different from the predicted?)
The 59 and 57 kD bands represent MMP3 pro form, while the 45 kD band is the active form.
ab38916 has not yet been referenced specifically in any publications.
