Revvity HTRF Human MMP1 Kit, 500 Assay Points

Revvity Matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) 1, also known as interstitial collagenase, is an endopeptidase secreted as an inactive proenzyme that is then activated by proteolytic cleavage. MMP1 plays a significant role in tissue repair and remodeling by degrading structural components of the extracellular matrix (ECM), such as collagens, gelatin, and fibronectin. As such it is closely related to all matrix-dependent disorders, such as fibrotic disease, and some types of cancer that rely on cell adhesion, migration, and invasion. - REV
