Chicken Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase 3 ELISA Kit
Principle of the Assay: TIMP-3 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-TIMP-3 antibody and an TIMP-3-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with TIMP-3-HRP conjugate in pre-coated plate for one hour. After the incubation period, the wells are decanted and washed five times. The wells are then incubated with a substrate for HRP enzyme. The product of the enzyme-substrate reaction forms a blue colored complex. Finally, a stop solution is added to stop the reaction, which will then turn the solution yellow. The intensity of color is measured spectrophotometrically at 450nm in a microplate reader. The intensity of the color is inversely proportional to the TIMP-3 concentration since TIMP-3 from samples and TIMP-3-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-TIMP-3 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by TIMP-3 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind TIMP-3-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The TIMP-3 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene belongs to the TIMP gene family. The proteins encoded by this gene family are inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of peptidases involved in degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Expression of this gene is induced in response to mitogenic stimulation and this netrin domain-containing protein is localized to the ECM. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant disorder Sorsby's fundus dystrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
Uniprot Description
TIMP3: Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. May form part of a tissue-specific acute response to remodeling stimuli. Known to act on MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7, MMP-9, MMP-13, MMP-14 and MMP-15. Interacts with EFEMP1. Belongs to the protease inhibitor I35 (TIMP) family.

Product Notes
The Chicken TIMP-3 timp3 (Catalog #AAA741959) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA741959 ELISA Kit recognizes Chicken TIMP-3. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "Tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinase 3, 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
