General description

M.W. 56,000/52,000. Note: 1 mU = 1 milliunit.
Native proMMP-1 from cultured, human rheumatoid synovial fibroblast. Corresponds to the 56 kDa/52 kDa enzyme. May contain some activated enzyme but requires activation by APMA (Cat. No. 164610) for 30 - 60 min. at 30°C just prior to use to obtain fully activated enzyme (46 kDa/42 kDa). May also undergo autocatalysis to yield a 27 kDa/22 kDa active enzyme. Expressed by a large number of cell types. Cleaves fibrillar type I collagen.

Packaging

Please refer to vial label for lot-specific concentration.

Physical form

In 300 mM NaCl, 50 mM Tris-HCl, 5 mM CaCl₂, 1 µM ZnCl₂, 0.05% Brij® 35 Detergent, 0.05% NaN₃, pH 7.0.

Preparation Note

Following initial thaw, aliquot and freeze (-70°C).
Prepared from culture medium of human rheumatoid synovial fibroblasts that has been shown by certified tests to be negative for HBsAg and for antibodies to HIV and HCV.
