Anti-MMP28 Antibody

Raised in rabbit and affinity-purified as an unconjugated IgG polyclonal, this MMP28 (epilysin) reagent from Antibodies.com is supplied as a 200 µl volume and recognizes a zinc-dependent endopeptidase involved in extracellular matrix turnover and remodeling of the tumor microenvironment. Endogenous MMP28 protein is detected in human, mouse, and rat samples by Western blot, supporting comparative work across epithelial tissues such as basal keratinocytes, lung epithelium, and cardiac tissue, as well as several carcinoma models where MMP28 has been linked to wound-healing assays and tumor biology studies. On arrival, the antibody should be aliquoted to limit freeze-thaw cycles and stored refrigerated in working aliquots to preserve immunoglobulin activity. The unconjugated format allows researchers to pair detection with their preferred secondary antibody and chemiluminescent Western blot workflow, and cross-reactivity across the three listed species makes the reagent useful for probing MMP28 abundance alongside related MMP family members in cell lysates and tissue homogenates.
