| Biochem/physiol Actions: | By immunoblotting against the reduced protein, the antibody identifies bands at 62 kDa and 58 kDa, as well as breakdown products at 50 kDa, 48 kDa, and 46 kDa. At higher antibody concentrations, the antibody also detects a 70 kDa band in rat and mouse tissues. |
| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Matrix metalloproteinase-28 (MMP-28) may have a role in modulating matrix composition. It is an endopeptidase which degrades casein and mediates epithelial to mesenchymal transition. MMP-28 aids in progression of tumors and is overexpressed in gastric carcinomas. |
