Mouse monoclonal [G05-6A10] antibody to MMP3 (Biotin).
Specificity
This antibody recognises matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) also known as stromelysin-1 (SL-1) and transin-1. MMP-3 is a member of the metzincins superfamily of proteases and is produced by various cells and tissues including the endothelium, vascular smooth muscle cells intima and platelets. MMP-3 is largely expressed by connective and vascular tissues and cells due to its roles in extracellular matrix remodeling. It is synthesized as a pre-proenzyme before being processed to remove the signal peptide forming the 57 kDa pro-MMP-3. This is then further cleaved by proteolytic enzymes to create the 45 kDa active form. Like other MMP’s, MMP-3 plays a major role in tissue remodeling through the promotion of extracellular matrix (ECM) protein turnover. Specifically MMP-3 degrades the collagen proteins, type II, IV, IX as well as the proteoglycans elastin fibronectin and laminin. Through the degradation of these ECM components, growth factors and adhesion molecules, MMP-3 can modify the extracellular environment and modulate cell to cell signaling. As such, MMP-3 is implicated in synaptic plasticity through enzymatic modification of ECM constituents. The biotinylated Mouse anti Human MMP-3 antibody, clone G05-6A10 (MCA6259B) can be used as a detection antibody in a sandwich ELISA with the purified Mouse anti Human MMP-3 antibody, clone I08-9G7 (MCA6258GA) as the capture antibody.

General Notes
Mouse anti Human MMP-3 antibody, clone G05-6A10, recognizes matrix metalloproteinase-3 (MMP-3) also known as stromelysin-1 (SL-1) and transin-1. MMP-3 is a member of the metzincins superfamily of proteases and is produced by various cells and tissues including the endothelium, vascular smooth muscle cells intima and platelets (Cui et al. 2017).
