Human MMP13 (activated) ELISA Kit
Human MMP13 (activated) ELISA Kit for ELISA and Human
Overview
| Product Description | ARG81346 Human MMP13 (activated) ELISA Kit is an Enzyme Immunoassay kit for the quantification of Human MMP13 (activated) in serum, synovial fluid and cell culture supernatant. |
|---|---|
| Tested Reactivity | Hu |
| Tested Application | ELISA |
| Specificity | The assay recognizes the activated form of collagenase 3. It does not cross-react with latent or activated forms of MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-8, MMP-9, and the catalytic domains of MT-1, MT-2, MT-3, MT-4, and MT-5 MMP. High concentrations of latent MMP 13 may contribute to OD-values measured with the assay. When present at equal concentrations latent MMP 13 yields about 1/10 the OD-value of active MMP 13. |

| Gene Symbol | MMP13 |
| Gene Full Name | matrix metallopeptidase 13 |
| Background | Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Most MMP's are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The protein encoded by this gene cleaves type II collagen more efficiently than types I and III. It may be involved in articular cartilage turnover and cartilage pathophysiology associated with osteoarthritis. The gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3.

| 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 CTGF. 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 CTGF. Plays a role in keratinocyte migration during wound healing. May play a role in cell migration and in tumor cell invasion. [UniProt] |

| PTM | The proenzyme is activated by removal of the propeptide; this cleavage can be effected by other matrix metalloproteinases, such as MMP2, MMP3 and MMP14 and may involve several cleavage steps. Cleavage can also be autocatalytic, after partial maturation by another protease or after treatment with 4-aminophenylmercuric acetate (APMA) (in vitro). N-glycosylated. Tyrosine phosphorylated by PKDCC/VLK. [UniProt] |
