| MMPs each have different substrate specificities within the ECM and are important in its degradation. MMP-2 mainly degrades type IV collagen and denatured collagens. MMP activity is modulated by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMP). Imbalanced secretion of certain MMP or disturbances in the differential control of MMP by TIMP have been implicated in the invasive potential of malignant tumors. | | | Catalog # | M2420-57 | | Applications | Suitable for use in Western Blot, ELISA and Immunohistochemistry.
