MMP23A and MMP23B, two Metallopeptidase type proteases, are type II membrane-anchored zymogens that are proteolytically processed at a conserved motif and converted into secretory and mature enzymes. The proteins contain prepro, catalytic, cysteine-rich, interleukin-1 receptor-related and proline-rich domains. The MMP23A and MMP23B genes have been reported to express multiple mRNAs, some of which are derived by alternative splicing.

Suitable for use in FLISA. Other applications not tested.

Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
