Anti-MMP14 antibody - Hinge region,Abcam,AB38971

Target data Endopeptidase that degrades various components of the extracellular matrix such as collagen (PubMed : 8015608). Essential for pericellular collagenolysis and modeling of skeletal and extraskeletal connective tissues during development (By similarity). Activates progelatinase A/MMP2, thereby acting as a positive regulator of cell growth and migration (PubMed : 22065321, PubMed : 8015608). Involved in the formation of the fibrovascular tissues in association with pro-MMP2 (PubMed : 12714657, PubMed : 22065321). May be involved in actin cytoskeleton reorganization by cleaving PTK7 (PubMed : 20837484). Acts as a regulator of Notch signaling by mediating cleavage and inhibition of DLL1 (PubMed : 21572390). Cleaves ADGRB1 to release vasculostatin-40 which inhibits angiogenesis (PubMed : 22330140). Acts as a negative regulator of the GDF15-GFRAL aversive response by mediating cleavage and inactivation of GFRAL (PubMed : 35177851). See full target information MMP14
