MMP-8 active protein

MMP-8 (catalytic domain) (human), (recombinant)

Purity
>=90% (SDS-PAGE)
Purified by multi-step chromatography
Synonyms
MMP-8; MMP-8 (catalytic domain) (human); (recombinant); MMP-8 active protein
Ordering
For Research Use Only!
Host
E Coli
Purity/Purification
>=90% (SDS-PAGE)
Purified by multi-step chromatography
Form/Format
Liquid. In 50mM TRIS, 5mM CaCl2, 300mM NaCl, 20uM ZnCl2, 0.5% Brij-35, and 30% glycerol
Source Note
Active Matrix Metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8, neutrophil collagenase, collagenase-2) catalytic domain from human cDNA. The enzyme consists of the catalytic domain of human MMP-8 (Phe99-Gln269) with a C-terminal purification tag. This represents a naturally-occurring active form of MMP-8 which lacks the C-terminal hemopexin domain1. MMPs lacking this domain cannot cleave native collagens; however, activity toward other targets such as gelatin, casein, or peptide substrates is unaffected
Activity
Preincubation of MMP-8 catalytic domain at 13.6 nM with the broad-spectrum inhibitor GM6001 at 20nM for 1 hour completely inhibits enzymatic activity
Specific Activity
>=150U/ug. One U=100 pmol/min at 37 degree C using the colorimetric thiopeptolide Ac-Pro-Leu-Gly-S-Leu-Leu-Gly-OEt (100uM) as substrate
Dry Ice Shipment
Extra charge fee may add to your shipping cost as dry ice is required to ship this product.
Preparation and Storage
For long term storage, store at -80 degree C
Shipping: Shipped on Dry Ice

Product Notes

The MMP-8 mmp8 (Catalog #AAA566599) is an Active Protein produced from E Coli and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "MMP-8, Active Protein" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.
