Human Matrix Metalloproteinase 17 (MMP17) ELISA Kit

Due to the possibility of mismatching between antigens from other origin and antibodies used in our kits (e.g., antibody targets conformational epitope rather than linear epitope), some native or recombinant proteins from other manufacturers may not be recognized by our products.

Principle of the Assay

The microtiter plate provided in this kit has been pre-coated with an antibody specific to MMP17. Standards or samples are then added to the appropriate microtiter plate wells with a biotin-conjugated antibody preparation specific to MMP17. Next, Avidin conjugated to Horseradish Peroxidase (HRP) is added to each microplate well and incubated. After the TMB substrate solution is added, only those wells that contain MMP17, biotin-conjugated antibody, and enzyme-conjugated Avidin will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by the addition of sulphuric acid solution, and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450nm ± 10nm. The concentration of MMP17 in the samples is then determined by comparing the O.D. of the samples to the standard curve.


For Use with serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants. For Research Use Only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.

Target Information

Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix, such as fibrin. May be involved in the activation of membrane-bound precursors of growth factors or inflammatory mediators, such as tumor necrosis factor-alpha. May also be involved in tumoral process. Cleaves pro-TNF-alpha at the '74-Ala-|-Gln-75' site. Not obvious if able to proteolytically activate progelatinase A. Does not hydrolyze collagen types I, II, III, IV and V, gelatin, fibronectin, laminin, decorin nor alpha1-antitrypsin.

Performance Characteristics

REPEATABILITY

Intra-assay Precision (Precision within an assay): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level MMP17 were tested 20 times on one plate, respectively.
Inter-assay Precision (Precision between assays): 3 samples with low, middle, and high-level MMP17 were tested on 3 different plates, with 8 replicates in each plate.
CV(%) = SD/meanX100

Intra-Assay: CV<10%
Inter-Assay: CV<12%

SENSITIVITY The minimum detectable dose was 0.064ng/mL.
ASSAY RANGE 0.156-10ng/mL
SPECIFICITY This assay has high sensitivity and excellent specificity for the detection of MMP17.
No significant cross-reactivity or interference between MMP17 and analogs was observed.
Note:
Limited by current skills and knowledge, it is impossible to perform all possible cross-reactivity detection tests between MMP17 and all analogs, therefore, cross reactivity may still exist.
