Recombinant Mouse TIMP2/TIMP-2 Protein (His Tag)

TIMP2;TIMP-2

P25785

Mouse Metalloproteinase inhibitor 2(TIMP-2), belongs to a family of proteins that regulate the activation and proteolytic activity of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). There are four mammalian members of the family; TIMP-1, TIMP-2, TIMP-3, and TIMP-4. The TIMP-2 is detected in testis, retina, hippocampus and cerebral cortex. The function of TIMP 2 protein is to inhibit MMPs non covalently by the formation of binary complexes. Complexes with metalloproteinases (such as collagenases) and irreversibly inactivates them by binding to their catalytic zinc cofactor.And the interaction with MMP-14 facilitates the activation of pro-MMP-2.It has been shown that the binding of TIMP 2 to a3b1 integrin results in the inhibition of endothelial cell proliferation and angiogenesis.
