1. The prediluted format is supplied in a dropper bottle and is optimized for use in IHC. After epitope retrieval step (if required), drip mAb solution onto the tissue section and incubate at RT for 30 min.

Purity: Protein A affinity chromatography

Description: It recognizes a protein of 21kDa, identified as tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 2 (TIMP2). It is closely related to TIMP1 and shows the highest binding affinity to both the latent (pro) and active forms of 72kDa Type IV collagenase (also known as MMP2 or gelatinase A). It also has affinity for the active form of 92kDa Type IV collagenase (also known as MMP9 or gelatinase B). TIMP2 inhibits the proteolytic invasiveness of tumor cells and normal placental trophoblast cells.

Immunogen: Amino acids 56-66 (DSGNDIYGNPI) from the human protein were used as the immunogen for this recombinant TIMP2 antibody.

Storage: Store the recombinant TIMP2 antibody at 2-8oC (with azide) or aliquot and store at -20 °C or colder (without azide).

Localization: Cytoplasmic, cell surface, secreted
