Product Name :
Mouse anti Human Tissue Inhibitor of Matrix Metalloproteinase 2 (TIMP2)
Description :
| Clone 3A4 | Isotype IgG2a | Product Type Monoclonal Antibody | Units 200 µg | Host Mouse | Species Reactivity Chicken Human Mouse Pig Rabbit Zebrafish | Application ELISA Immunohistochemistry Western Blotting
Background :
Immunogen: Hybridoma produced by the fusion of splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic peptide derived from the human TIMP-2 protein and mouse myeloma Ag8563 cells. Sequence common in mouse, rabbit, chicken, zebrafish and pig.
Source :
TIMP-1, TIMP-2, TIMP-3 and TIMP-4 (for tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-1, -2, -3 and -4) complex with metalloproteinases such as collagenases,gelatinases and stromelysins, resulting in irreversible inactivation of the metalloproteinase. TIMP-1 was found to be identical to EPA (erythroidpotentiation activity). Parathyroid hormone has been shown to be a regulator of TIMP-2 in osteoblastic cells. TIMP-3 may be involved in regulating trophoblastic invasion of the uterus as well as in regulating remodeling of the extracellular matrix during the folding of epithelia, and in the formation,branching and expansion of epithelial tubes. TIMP-4 is most highly expressed in heart and low levels of TIMP-4 are expressed in liver, brain, lung, thymus and spleen. Synonyms: CSC-21K; Metalloproteinase Inhibitor 2 precursor <
