Non-hemorrhagic metalloproteinase that hydrolyzes the alpha chains of fibrinogen, as well as fibrin, fibronectin and casein. Beta and gamma chains are also hydrolyzed, but more slowly. Thrombolytic activity is also observed. Induces detachment of endothelial cells followed by death, and inhibits endothelial cell adhesion to fibronectin. Induces edema in mouse paw. Inhibits ADP-induced platelet aggregation on human platelet-rich plasma with an IC50 of 2.8 µM.

If the delivery form is liquid, the default storage buffer is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 5%-50% glycerol. If the delivery form is lyophilized powder, the buffer before lyophilization is Tris/PBS-based buffer, 6% Trehalose, pH 8.0.

We recommend that this vial be briefly centrifuged prior to opening to bring the contents to the bottom. Please reconstitute protein in deionized sterile water to a concentration of 0.1-1.0 mg/mL.We recommend to add 5-50% of glycerol (final concentration) and aliquot for long-term storage at -20°C/-80°C. Our default final concentration of glycerol is 50%. Customers could use it as reference.

The shelf life is related to many factors, storage state, buffer ingredients, storage temperature and the stability of the protein itself. Generally, the shelf life of liquid form is 6 months at -20°C/-80°C. The shelf life of lyophilized form is 12 months at -20°C/-80°C.
