Product Description
Recombinant Human Matrix Metalloproteinase-8 (MMP-8) is a member of the matrix metalloproteinase family, which plays a key role in the breakdown of extracellular matrix proteins. MMP-8 is involved in tissue remodeling and wound healing processes. This enzyme has a molecular weight of approximately 57 kDa and is commonly used in research and pharmaceutical applications for its ability to degrade collagen and other components of the extracellular matrix. Its enzymatic activity makes it a valuable tool for studying the role of matrix metalloproteinases in various biological processes.
