Target
-
FunctionMay be involved in tissue injury and remodeling. Has significant elastolytic activity. Can accept large and small amino acids at the P1' site, but has a preference for leucine. Aromatic or hydrophobic residues are preferred at the P1 site, with small hydrophobic residues (preferably alanine) occupying P3.
-
Tissue specificityFound in alveolar macrophages but not in peripheral blood monocytes.
-
Sequence similaritiesBelongs to the peptidase M10A family.
Contains 4 hemopexin-like domains. -
DomainThe 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 - Anti-MMP12 antibody (ab26832)Anti-MMP12 antibody (ab26832) at 1/5000 dilution + human MMP12 protein 400ng (1-33amino acids)
Secondary
goat-anti-IgY/Fc-HRP
Developed using the ECL technique.
Predicted band size: 54 kDa
Observed band size: 15 kDa why is the actual band size different from the predicted?
Different expression length of fusion protein will result in different MW of MMP 12.
