TIMP-3 / Unconjugated /

Product Details

Description	Rabbit Polyclonal to TIMP3. The tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) are natural inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of zinc-binding endopeptidases involved in the degradation of the extracellular matrix. The TIMP3 gene is expressed in many tissues, with highest expression in the placenta. TIMP3 encodes a potent angiogenesis inhibitor and is mutated in Sorsby fundus dystrophy, a macular degenerative disease with submacular choroidal neovascularization. TIMP3 gene is mapped to 22q12.1-q13.2. Mutations in TIMP3 cause the autosomal dominant disorder Sorsby's fundus dystrophy (SFD). -

About TIMP-3
This gene belongs to the TIMP gene family. The proteins encoded by this gene family are inhibitors of the matrix metalloproteinases, a group of peptidases involved in degradation of the extracellular matrix (ECM). Expression of this gene is induced in response to mitogenic stimulation and this netrin domain-containing protein is localized to the ECM. Mutations in this gene have been associated with the autosomal dominant disorder Sorsby's fundus dystrophy. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
