MMP13 ELISA kits are immunoassay tools for the measurement of the protein matrix metallopeptidase 13, which is encoded by the MMP13 gene in humans. Functionally, this protein is reported to play a role in in the degradation of extracellular matrix proteins including fibrillar collagen, fibronectin, TNC and ACAN. The canonical protein structure is reported to have an amino acid length of 471 residues, a mass of 53.8 kDa, and is a member of the Peptidase M10A protein family. It is known to be localized in the extracellular matrix and is secreted. The protein has been noted to be post-translationally N-glycosylated, cleaved and phosphorylated. The MMP13 gene has been associated with the disease, Spondyloepimetaphyseal dysplasia. Other alias names for this target include MANDP1, MDST, collagenase 3, matrix metalloproteinase 13 (collagenase 3), and CLG3.
There are MMP13 ELISA kits that can detect a target at concentrations as low as 1.37 pg/mL and as high as 5000 ng/mL. Click on the products below for more detailed ELISA kit information, such as target reactivity and assay sensitivity.
