Description: | MME Protein exhibits thermolysin-like specificity, primarily degrading polypeptides up to 30 amino acids. Crucially, it plays a key role in cleaving Gly-Phe bonds to degrade opioid peptides, including Met- and Leu-enkephalins. Additionally, MME catalyzes the cleavage of bradykinin, substance P, neurotensin peptides, and can cleave angiotensin-1, angiotensin-2, and angiotensin 1-9. The protein participates in degrading atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and brain natriuretic factor (BNP(1-32)), displaying UV-inducible elastase activity toward skin preelastic and elastic fibers. MME Protein, Human (HEK293) is the recombinant human-derived MME protein, expressed by HEK293, with tag free. The total length of MME Protein, Human (HEK293) is 699 a.a., with molecular weight of 80-100 kDa. |
