Description
This product features a recombinant fragment of human Neutrophil collagenase (Matrix metalloproteinase-8, MMP-8), encompassing residues 101-467. This stable and soluble fragment is ideal for structural studies and biochemical assays investigating collagen degradation mechanisms.
Neutrophil collagenase (MMP-8), encoded by the MMP8 gene, is a matrix metalloproteinase that specifically degrades fibrillar collagens, including types I, II, and III. It is primarily stored in cytoplasmic granules and is secreted into the extracellular space and matrix, where it plays a critical role in tissue remodeling, inflammation, and wound healing processes.
