TIMP4 Human

Source: Sf9, Baculovirus cells.Sterile Filtered colorless solution.Metalloproteinase inhibitor 4 (TIMP4) is a member of a family of secreted proteins which regulate the activation and proteolytic activity of the zinc enzymes known as matrix metalloproteinases. The four known members of this family are TIMP1, 2, 3 and 4. TIMP4 is produced by various tissues, particularly the brain, heart, ovary and skeletal muscle. Limited studies have shown that the TIMP4 protein has a tumor suppressive effect against Wilm92s tumor, exhibiting a negative correlation with glioma malignancy and is found in breast carcinoma cells.TIMP4 produced in Sf9 Baculovirus cells is a single, glycosylated polypeptide chain containing 204 amino acids (30-224 a.a.) and having a molecular mass of 23.5kDa (Molecular size on SDS-PAGE will appear at approximately 18-28kDa) . TIMP4 is expressed with a 6 amino acid His tag at C-Terminus and purified by proprietary chromatographic techniques.
