MMP-25/MT6-MMP Antibody (MM0029-2B5) [DyLight 350]

DyLight (R) is a trademark of Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc. and its subsidiaries.

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. They are also involved in disease processes, such as metastasis and arthritis. Most MMPs are secreted as inactive proproteins which are then activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the membrane-type MMP (MT-MMP) subfamily, and is attached to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidyl inositol anchor. The encoded protein is thought to inactivate alpha-1 proteinase inhibitor, a major tissue protectant against proteolytic enzymes released by activated neutrophils, facilitating the transendothelial migration of neutrophils to inflammatory sites in response to bacterial infection or inflammation. The encoded protein may also play a role in tumor invasion and metastasis through activation of MMP2. The gene has previously been referred to as MMP20 but has been renamed MMP25.
