Lyophilized from sterile PBS, pH 7.4, 5 % trehalose and 5 % mannitol.
Bio-activity
Measured by its ability to inhibit human MMP-2 cleavage of a fluorogenic peptide substrate MCA-PLGL-DPA-AR-NH2. The IC50 value is < 6 nM.
Molecular Mass
Recombinant Mouse TIMP1 consists of 181 amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 21 kDa. It migRates as an approximately 30 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
Endotoxin
< 1.0 EU per 1 microgram of protein (determined by LAL method).
Purity
> 95 % by SDS-PAGE.
Storage
In lyophilized state for 1 year (4°C); After reconstitution under sterile conditions for 3 months (-70°C). Avoid repeated freeze/thaw cycles.
Reconstitution
Reconstitute in sterile distilled water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.

Background
Metalloproteinase inhibitor that functions by forming one to one complexes with target metalloproteinases, such as collagenases, and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor. Acts on MMP1, MMP2, MMP3, MMP7, MMP8, MMP9, MMP10, MMP11, MMP12, MMP13 and MMP16. Does not act on MMP14 (By similarity). Also functions as a growth factor that regulates cell differentiation, migration and cell death and activates cellular signaling cascades via CD63 and ITGB1. Plays a role in integrin signaling.
