Matrix metalloproteinases are a family of zinc and calcium dependent endopeptidases with the combined ability to degrade all the components of the extracellular matrix. MMP-1 (interstitial collagenase), can degrade a broad range of substrates including types I, II, III, VII, VIII, and X collagens as well as casein, gelatin,
alpha -1 antitrypsin, myelin basic protein, L-Selectin, pro-TNF, IL-1 beta, IGFBP-3, IGFBP-5, pro-MMP-2, and pro-MMP-9. A significant role of MMP-1 is the degradation of fibrillar collagens in extracellular matrix remodeling, characterized by the cleavage of the interstitial collagen triple helix into ¾, ¼ fragments. However, as the list of substrates above illustrates, the role of MMP-1 is more diverse than originally envisaged, and may involve enzyme cascades, cytokine regulation, and cell surface molecule modulation. MMP-1 is expressed by fibroblasts, keratinocytes, endothelial cells, monocytes, and macrophages. Structurally, MMP-1 may be divided into several distinct domains; a pro-domain which is cleaved upon activation; a catalytic domain containing the zinc binding site; a short hinge region and a carboxyl terminal (hemopexin-like) domain.

Scientific Data Images for Human MMP‑1 Antibody
Detection of Human MMP‑1 by Western Blot.
Western blot shows lysates of PC-3 human prostate cancer cell line and HEK001 human epidermal keratinocyte cell line. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human MMP-1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF901) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for MMP-1 at approximately 50 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
Detection of Human MMP‑1 by Simple WesternTM.
Left: Simple Western lane view shows lysates of MDA‑MB‑231 human breast cancer cell line, loaded at 0.1 mg/ml. A specific band was detected for MMP‑1 at approximately 55 kDa (as indicated) using both 10 µg/ml and 50 µg/ml of Goat Anti-Human MMP‑1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF901) followed by HRP-conjugated Donkey Anti-Goat Secondary Antibody (Catalog # 043-522-2). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 12-230kDa separation system. Right: Simple Western electropherogram showing the same Goat Anti-Human MMP‑1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF901) tested at 10 µg/ml (blue line) and 50 µg/ml (green line) in the MDA‑MB‑231 human breast cancer cell line.MMP‑1 in Human Ovarian Cancer Tissue.
MMP-1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human ovarian cancer tissue using 15 µg/mL Goat Anti-Human MMP-1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF901) overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained with the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue).

MMP‑1 in Human Prostate Tissue.
MMP-1 was detected in immersion fixed paraffin-embedded sections of human prostate tissue using Goat Anti-Human MMP-1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF901) at 10 µg/mL overnight at 4 °C. Tissue was stained using the Anti-Goat HRP-DAB Cell & Tissue Staining Kit (brown; Catalog # CTS008) and counterstained with hematoxylin (blue). View our protocol for Chromogenic IHC Staining of Paraffin-embedded Tissue Sections.
Western Blot Shows Human MMP-1 Specificity by Using Knockout Cell Line.
Western blot shows lysates of PC-3 human prostate cancer parental cell line and MMP-1 knockout PC-3 cell line (KO). PVDF membrane was probed with 1 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human MMP-1 Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF901) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF017). A specific band was detected for MMP-1 at approximately 50 kDa (as indicated) in the parental PC-3 cell line, but is not detectable in knockout PC-3 cell line. GAPDH (Catalog # AF5718) is shown as a loading control. This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 1.
