Matrix Metalloproteinase Protocols

Ian M. Clark (Ed.), 2010

Overview

This book details established laboratory techniques for the investigation of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs). It covers methods for expressing and purifying MMPs and tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs). The protocols include detection of both proteins and mRNA for MMPs and TIMPs. Assays for MMP and TIMP activities in various contexts are also addressed.
