Product Name :
Mouse MMP-8 Protein (pro form) 3608

express system :
HEK293

Product tag :
C-His

Purity:
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE;> 95% as determined by HPLC

Background:
Alteration of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) expression has been studied for various cardiac diseases, including dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM), with the significance of surrogate markers of extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. MMP-8 was identified only in myocardiocytes, while MMP-9 and TIMP-2 were present in both myocardiocytes and stroma, but with different intensity. The increasing intensity of MMP-8 and TIMP-2 immunoreactions was significantly associated with low HCS.

Molecular Weight:
The protein has a predicted MW of 51.9 kDa. Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 65-70 kDa based on Tris-Bis PAGE result.

Available Size :
100 µg, 500 µg

Endotoxin:
Less than 1EU per μg by the LAL method.

Form :
Liquid

Storage Instructions :
Valid for 12 months from date of receipt when stored at -80°C. Recommend to aliquot the protein into smaller quantities for optimal storage. Please minimize freeze-thaw cycles.

Storage buffer:
Shipped with dry ice.
