products description :
MMP-9 is secreted as a 92kDa zymogen. Cleavage of pro-MMP-9 results in the active enzyme with a molecular weight of ~82kDa. MMP-9 has a gelatin-binding domain consisting of three fibronectin type II units, a catalytic domain containing the zinc-binding site, a proline-rich type V collagen-homologous domain and a hemopexin-like domain. MMP9 is produced by monocytes, macrophages, neutrophils, keratinocytes, fibroblasts, osteoclasts and endothelial cells, and is involved in inflammatory responses, tissue remodelling, wound healing, Tumor growth and metastasis. Recombinant human Pro-MMP-9 comprises a 688aa fragment (20-707) corresponding to the pro form of the protein minus the signal peptide and is expressed in E Coli with an N-terminal 6xHis tag. This product is not intended for therapeutic use

ncbi summary :
This gene encodes a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family of extracellular matrix-degrading enzymes that are involved in tissue remodeling, wound repair, progression of atherosclerosis and tumor invasion. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, zinc-dependent endopeptidase enzyme that degrades collagens of type IV, V and XI, and elastin. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit an abnormal pattern of skeletal growth plate vascularization and ossification, reduced keratinocyte hyperproliferation at all neoplastic stages, a decreased incidence of invasive tumors, and resistance to experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
