Function
Plays a role in the degradation of extracellular matrix proteins including fibrillar collagen, fibronectin, TNC and ACAN. Cleaves triple helical collagens, including type I, type II and type III collagen, but has the highest activity with soluble type II collagen. Can also degrade collagen type IV, type XIV and type X. May also function by activating or degrading key regulatory proteins, such as TGFB1 and CCN2. Plays a role in wound healing, tissue remodeling, cartilage degradation, bone development, bone mineralization and ossification. Required for normal embryonic bone development and ossification. Plays a role in the healing of bone fractures via endochondral ossification. Plays a role in wound healing, probably by a mechanism that involves proteolytic activation of TGFB1 and degradation of CCN2. Plays a role in keratinocyte migration during wound healing. May play a role in cell migration and in tumor cell invasion.

Notes
Mouse MMP13 SimpleStep ELISA® kit is a single-wash 90 min sandwich ELISA designed for the quantitative measurement of MMP13 protein in Tissue extracts. Quantitate Mouse MMP13 with 13.6 pg/ml sensitivity.
SimpleStep ELISA® technology employs capture antibodies conjugated to an affinity tag that is recognized by the monoclonal antibody used to coat our SimpleStep ELISA® plates. This approach to sandwich ELISA allows the formation of the antibody-analyte sandwich complex in a single step, significantly reducing assay time. See the SimpleStep ELISA® protocol summary in the image section for further details. Our SimpleStep ELISA® technology provides several benefits:
-Single-wash protocol reduces assay time to 90 minutes or less
-High sensitivity, specificity and reproducibility from superior antibodies
-Fully validated in biological samples
-96-wells plate breakable into 12 x 8 wells strips
A 384-well SimpleStep ELISA® microplate (ab203359) is available to use as an alternative to the 96-well microplate provided with SimpleStep ELISA® kits.

- Activity summary
Matrix metallopeptidase 13 (MMP-13) also called collagenase 3 is an enzyme with an approximate molecular mass of 54 kDa. It plays a significant role in the breakdown of extracellular matrix components particularly collagen. MMP-13 is expressed in several tissues including cartilage skin and bone. Its expression sees an increase during tissue remodeling and in pathological conditions. MMP-13 also participates in processes like wound healing and embryonic development making it a focal point for understanding tissue dynamics.
- Biological function summary
Matrix metallopeptidase 13 contributes extensively to the degradation of collagen type II a major component of cartilage. As a zinc-dependent endopeptidase MMP-13 is part of the MMP family which facilitates the remodeling of the extracellular matrix. MMP-13 is involved in the proteolytic cascade working in conjunction with other MMPs and elastase to mediate tissue repair and turnover. It does not form complexes but acts in concert with other enzymes to execute its physiological functions effectively.
- Pathways
Matrix metallopeptidase 13 significance is most noted in the cartilage degradation pathway. It interacts with other MMPs such as MMP-1 and MMP-9 to efficiently break down extracellular matrix components. These interactions highlight its role in the regulation of matrix metalloproteinase activity within the connective tissue degradation pathway. These pathways are key during normal connective tissue remodeling and in pathological processes illustrating the essential roles of MMPs in maintaining tissue homeostasis.
- Associated diseases and disorders
Matrix metallopeptidase 13 has strong associations with osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis. It contributes to cartilage destruction intensifying the progression of these disorders due to its potent collagenolytic activity. Other proteins like MMP-9 and MMP-14 are also involved in these processes potentially amplifying tissue damage in affected joints. Understanding how MMP-13 and related proteins drive these diseases offers potential therapeutic targets for slowing disease progression and enhancing joint health.
