![NSJ Bio/TIMP2 Antibody [clone TIMP2/4477] (V8933)/100 ug/V8933SAF-100UG](https://www.ebiomall.cn/images/NSJ/img-V8933-100UG-1.jpg)
It recognizes a protein of 21kDa, identified as tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases-2 (TIMP-2). It is closely related to TIMP-1 and shows the highest binding affinity to both the latent (pro) and active forms of 72kDa Type IV collagenase (also known as MMP-2 or gelatinase A). It also has affinity for the active form of 92kDa Type IV collagenase (also known as MMP-9 or gelatinase B). TIMP-2 inhibits the proteolytic invasiveness of tumor cells and normal placental trophoblast cells.
Optimal dilution of the TIMP2 antibody should be determined by the researcher.
Recombinant full-length human TIMP2 protein was used as the immunogen for the TIMP2 antibody.
Aliquot the TIMP2 antibody and store frozen at -20oC or colder. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
