MMP-2 Protein, Mouse (431a.a, HEK293, His)

MMP-2 protein is a ubiquitous metalloprotease that contributes to vasculature remodeling, angiogenesis, tissue repair, tumor invasion, inflammation, and atherosclerotic plaque rupture. In addition to extracellular matrix degradation, it also targets non-matrix proteins and promotes vasoconstriction. MMP-2 Protein, Mouse (431a.a, HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived MMP-2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Description

MMP-2 protein is a ubiquitous metalloprotease that contributes to vasculature remodeling, angiogenesis, tissue repair, tumor invasion, inflammation, and atherosclerotic plaque rupture. In addition to extracellular matrix degradation, it also targets non-matrix proteins and promotes vasoconstriction. MMP-2 Protein, Mouse (431a.a, HEK293, His) is the recombinant mouse-derived MMP-2 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag.

Background

MMP-2 protein is a versatile ubiquitinous metalloproteinase with involvement in various functions, including vasculature remodeling, angiogenesis, tissue repair, tumor invasion, inflammation, and atherosclerotic plaque rupture. Apart from its role in degrading extracellular matrix proteins, it also acts on nonmatrix proteins such as big endothelial 1 and beta-type CGRP, promoting vasoconstriction. Furthermore, it cleaves KISS at a Gly-|-Leu bond and appears to play a role in myocardial cell death pathways and myocardial oxidative stress regulation by influencing GSK3beta activity. Additionally, MMP-2 is implicated in the formation of fibrovascular tissues and its C-terminal non-catalytic fragment, PEX, exhibits anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor properties while inhibiting cell migration and adhesion to FGF2 and vitronectin. Furthermore, MMP-2 serves as a ligand for integrin alpha-v/beta-3 on the surface of blood vessels.
