MMP-9 human recombinant, >=1,300 pmol/min/mug, expressed in HEK 293 cells

Recombinant human Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) is expressed in human HEK 293 cells as a glycoprotein with a calculated molecular mass of 76 kDa (amino acids 20-707). The DTT-reduced protein migrates as a ~92 kDa polypeptide on SDS-PAGE due to glycosylation. This protein is manufactured in human cells, with no serum. The human cells expression system allows human-like glycosylation and folding, and often supports higher specific activity of the protein. The protein is produced with no artificial tags.
