NA.41

Tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3 (TIMP-3) is a member of the TIMP family. The TIMPs are so named because they are slow, tight binding endogenous inhibitors of the Matrix Metalloproteinases (MMPs). The four TIMPs have different inhibition constants for the different MMPs studied. TIMPs have been shown to have activity against the ADAMs family of proteinases. TIMP-3 is an efficient "sheddase" inhibitor, inhibiting ADAM-17 (TACE) at the low nanomolar levels seen with MMP inhibition. The other ADAMs proteinases have not yet been assayed for TIMP inhibition, but TIMP-2 seems to be much less active on ADAM-17 than isTIMP-3. TIMP-3 is thought to be constitutively produced by many cell types and is inducible in others. The TIMP-3 localization differs from the other 3 TIMPs, and is thought to be primarily deposited into the extracellular matrix.

The antibody recognizes TIMP-3 at the C-terminus. Does not appear to cross react with TIMP-1 or TIMP-2.

Epitope: C-terminus
KLH-conjugated linear peptide corresponding to human TIMP-3 at the C-terminus.
