Anti-MMP-14 Antibody, catalytic domain, clone LEM-2/15.8

MT1-MMP plays an important role during endothelial cell migration and matrix remodeling. Although the role of MT1-MMP in endothelial cell motility is not fully characterized, its activity appears to modulate endothelial migration, invasion, and formation of capillary tubes during the angiogenic response (Galvez, 2001). Mt1-MMP also appears to play a key role in monocyte revruitment during inflammation (Salomon, 2005).

Epitope: catalytic domain

Synthetic peptide: amino acid sequence 218-233 within the catalytic domain
