TIMP-2
other gene names :
Timp2; Timp2; Timp-2; TIMP-2
uniprot entry name :
TIMP2_RAT
specificity :
This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for detection of TIMP-2. No significant cross-reactivity or interference between TIMP-2 and analogues was observed. NOTE: Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible for us to complete the cross-reactivity detection between TIMP-2 and all the analogues, therefore, cross reaction may still exist in some cases.
storage stability :
Store all reagents at 2-8 degree C.

products description :
. Principle of the assay: TIMP-2 ELISA kit applies the competitive enzyme immunoassay technique utilizing a monoclonal anti-TIMP-2 antibody and an TIMP-2-HRP conjugate. The assay sample and buffer are incubated together with TIMP-2-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-2 concentration since TIMP-2 from samples and TIMP-2-HRP conjugate compete for the anti-TIMP-2 antibody binding site. Since the number of sites is limited, as more sites are occupied by TIMP-2 from the sample, fewer sites are left to bind TIMP-2-HRP conjugate. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The TIMP-2 concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

uniprot summary :
TIMP2: Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. Known to act on MMP-1, MMP-2, MMP-3, MMP-7, MMP-8, MMP-9, MMP-10, MMP-13, MMP-14, MMP-15, MMP-16 and MMP-19. Interacts (via the C-terminal) with MMP2 (via the C- terminal PEX domain); the interaction inhibits the MMP2 activity. Down-regulated by TGFB1. Belongs to the protease inhibitor I35 (TIMP) family.
