MMP1 (Human) ELISA Kit is a sandwich enzyme immunoassay for the quantitative measurement of human MMP1.
Calibration Range:
156 to 10000 pg/mL
Reactivity:
Human
Quality Control Testing:
Standard curve
The standard curve is for the purpose of illustration only and should not be used to calculate unknowns. A standard curve should be generated each time the assay is performed.
Storage Instruction:
Store at 4°C for 6 months, at -20°C for 12 months. Avoid multiple freeze-thaw cycles.
Proteins of the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) family are involved in the breakdown of extracellular matrix in normal physiological processes, such as embryonic development, reproduction, and tissue remodeling, as well as in disease processes, such as arthritis and metastasis. Most MMP's are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. This gene encodes a secreted enzyme which breaks down the interstitial collagens, types I, II, and III. The gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq
