Biological Activity

Description

The MMP-26 protein has broad substrate specificity and hydrolyzes type IV collagen, fibronectin, fibrinogen, β-casein, type I gelatin, and α-1 protease inhibitors. The versatility of this enzyme suggests involvement in the degradation and remodeling of various extracellular matrix components. MMP-26 Protein, Human is the recombinant human-derived MMP-26 protein, expressed by E. coli , with tag free.

Background

The MMP-26 protein demonstrates a broad substrate specificity, as it may hydrolyze collagen type IV, fibronectin, fibrinogen, beta-casein, type I gelatin, and alpha-1 proteinase inhibitor. Its capacity to enzymatically cleave these diverse substrates indicates its potential involvement in the degradation and remodeling of various extracellular matrix components. Additionally, MMP-26 is capable of activating progelatinase B, suggesting a regulatory role in modulating the activity of other matrix metalloproteinases. The diverse substrate hydrolysis and activation capabilities of MMP-26 underscore its significance in the dynamic processes of tissue remodeling and homeostasis within the extracellular matrix.

Verified Bioactivity

Measured by its ability to cleave the fluorogenic peptide substrate Mca-Pro-Leu-Gly-Leu-Dpa-Ala-Arg-NH2 and the specific activity is > 60 pmol/min/µg.
