MMP-9 Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His)

The MMP-9 protein is a matrix metalloproteinase that is critical for local extracellular matrix proteolysis and leukocyte migration. It is suggested that it may be involved in bone osteoclastic resorption. MMP-9 Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is the recombinant cynomolgus-derived MMP-9 protein, expressed by HEK293 , with C-His labeled tag. The total length of MMP-9 Protein, Cynomolgus (HEK293, His) is 687 a.a., with molecular weight of 85-100 kDa.

MMP-9 Protein, a matrix metalloproteinase, plays a crucial role in local proteolysis of the extracellular matrix and facilitates leukocyte migration. It could be involved in bone osteoclastic resorption and cleaves KiSS1 at a specific Gly-|-Leu bond. Additionally, MMP-9 cleaves NINJ1 to generate the Secreted ninjurin-1 form and processes type IV and type V collagen into large C-terminal three-quarter fragments and shorter N-terminal one-quarter fragments. While degrading fibronectin, MMP-9 does not impact laminin or Pz-peptide, showcasing its selectivity in substrate cleavage.
