Mouse Matrix Metalloproteinase 13 (MMP13) ELISA Kit | MMP13 elisa kit
Mouse Matrix Metalloproteinase 13 (MMP13) High Sensitive ELISA Kit
To minimize extra influence on the performance, operation procedures and lab conditions, especially room temperature, air humidity, incubator temperature should be strictly controlled. It is also strongly suggested that the whole assay is performed by the same operator from the beginning to the end.
Principle of the Assay: The microplate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to MMP13. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microplate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody specific to MMP13. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain MMP13, biotin-conjugated antibody and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of MMP13 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family that plays a role in wound healing, skeletal development and bone remodeling. The encoded protein is activated by the removal of an N-terminal activation peptide to generate a zinc-dependent endopeptidase enzyme that can cleave various native collagens, including types I - IV, X and XIV. Mice lacking the encoded protein display profound defects in growth plate cartilage as well as a delay in the endochondral bone development. Lack of the encoded protein also impairs the wound healing process due to reduced keratinocyte migration and vascular density at the wound site. This gene is located in a cluster of other matrix metalloproteinase genes on chromosome 9. [provided by RefSeq, Jun 2015]
Uniprot Description
MMP13: Degrades collagen type I. Does not act on gelatin or casein. Could have a role in tumoral process. Defects in MMP13 are the cause of spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia Missouri type (SEMD-MO). A bone disease characterized by moderate to severe metaphyseal changes, mild epiphyseal involvement, rhizomelic shortening of the lower limbs with bowing of the femora and/or tibiae, coxa vara, genu varum and pear-shaped vertebrae in childhood. Epimetaphyseal changes improve with age. Defects in MMP13 are the cause of metaphyseal anadysplasia type 1 (MANDP1). Metaphyseal anadysplasia consists of an abnormal bone development characterized by severe skeletal changes that, in contrast with the progressive course of most other skeletal dysplasias, resolve spontaneously with age. Clinical characteristics are evident from the first months of life and include slight shortness of stature and a mild varus deformity of the legs. Patients attain a normal stature in adolescence and show improvement or complete resolution of varus deformity of the legs and rhizomelic micromelia. Belongs to the peptidase M10A family.

Product Notes
The Mouse MMP13 mmp13 (Catalog #AAA2087027) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2087027 ELISA Kit recognizes Mouse MMP13. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Matrix Metalloproteinase 13 (MMP13), ELISA Kit" 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.Precautions
