Matrix metalloproteinase-8（MMP-8）also known as neutrophil collagenase and CLG1，is a member of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) family，which degrade components of the extracellular matrix (ECM) and play essential roles in various physiological processes as well as pathological processes. MMP-8 may affect the metastatic behavior of breast cancer cells through protection against lymph node metastasis, underlining the importance of anti-target identification in drug development. MMP-8 in the tumor may have a protective effect against lymph node metastasis.

Source: Mouse MMP-8, His Tag (MM8-M52H8) is expressed from human 293 cells (HEK293). It contains AA Phe 21 - Ser 465 (Accession # O70138-1). It needs to be activated by agents such as APMA in vitro to have hydrolytic activity.
