Target data

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

ab237604 is the carrier-free version of Anti-MMP13 antibody [EPR21778] ab219620.

Our RabMAb® technology is a patented hybridoma-based technology for making rabbit monoclonal antibodies. For details on our patents, please refer to RabMAb® patents.

This product is a recombinant monoclonal antibody, which offers several advantages including:

  • - High batch-to-batch consistency and reproducibility
  • - Improved sensitivity and specificity
  • - Long-term security of supply
  • - Animal-free batch production

For more information, read more on recombinant antibodies.

Our carrier-free antibodies are typically supplied in a PBS-only formulation, purified and free of BSA, sodium azide and glycerol. The carrier-free buffer and high concentration allow for increased conjugation efficiency.

This conjugation-ready format is designed for use with fluorochromes, metal isotopes, oligonucleotides, and enzymes, which makes them ideal for antibody labelling, functional and cell-based assays, flow-based assays (e.g. mass cytometry) and Multiplex Imaging applications.

Use our conjugation kits for antibody conjugates that are ready-to-use in as little as 20 minutes with 1 minute hands-on-time and 100% antibody recovery: available for fluorescent dyes, HRP, biotin and gold.

This product is compatible with the Maxpar® Antibody Labeling Kit from Fluidigm, without the need for antibody preparation. Maxpar® is a trademark of Fluidigm Canada Inc.

Supplementary info

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.
