MMP10

SYNONYMS
SL-2, STMY2, Stromelysin-2, Matrix metalloproteinase-10, MMP-10, Transin-2, MMP10.

INTRODUCTION
MMP10 (Matrix Metallopeptidase 10) which is a part of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) is activating procollagenase. MMP10 is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3. MMP10 takes part in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, like embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as also in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. The majority MMP's are secreted as inactive proproteins that are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. MMP10 encodes an enzyme which degrades proteoglycans and fibronectin.

DESCRIPTION
MMP10 Human Recombinant produced in E.coli is a single, non-glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 401 amino acids (99-476a.a) and having a molecular mass of 45.4kDa. MMP10 is fused to a 23 amino acid His-tag at N-terminus & purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
