INTRODUCTION
Membrane Metalloendopeptidase, also known as MME is a zinc metallopeptidase which is expressed at the cell surface of various cells. MME degrades the amyloid beta peptide whose abnormal misfolding as well as aggregation in neural tissue has been implicated as the cause for Alzheimer's disease. MME is expressed in an extended range of tissues and is especially plentiful in the kidney. MME is also a common acute lymphocytic leukemia antigen which is a significant cell surface marker in the diagnosis of human acute lymphocytic leukemia (ALL). MME is used in hematological diagnosis because it is expressed by early B, pro-B and pre-B lymphocytes, and also by lymph node germinal centers.

DESCRIPTION
MME Human Recombinant produced in Sf9 Insect cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 708 amino acids (52-750 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 80.9kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 70-100kDa).
MME is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
