Principle of the Assay: The Picokine™ Human MMP13 Pre-Coated ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is a solid-phase immunoassay specially designed to measure Human MMP13 with a 96-well strip plate that is pre-coated with antibody specific for MMP13. The detection antibody is a biotinylated antibody specific for MMP13. The capture antibody is monoclonal antibody from mouse and the detection antibody is polyclonal antibody from goat. The kit contains recombinant Human MMP13 with immunogen: Expression system for standard: NS0; Immunogen sequence: L20-C471. The kit is analytically validated with ready-to-use reagents. To measure Human MMP13, add standards and samples to the wells, then add the biotinylated detection antibody. Wash the wells with PBS or TBS buffer, and add Avidin-Biotin-Peroxidase Complex (ABC-HRP). Wash away the unbounded ABC-HRP with PBS or TBS buffer and add TMB. TMB is an HRP substrate and will be catalyzed to produce a blue color product, which changes into yellow after adding the acidic stop solution. The absorbance of the yellow product at 450nm is linearly proportional to Human MMP13 in the sample. Read the absorbance of the yellow product in each well using a plate reader, and benchmark the sample wells' readings against the standard curve to determine the concentration of Human MMP13 in the sample.

Background/Introduction: Collagenase 3 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the MMP13 gene. Most MMP's are secreted as inactive proproteins which are activated when cleaved by extracellular proteinases. The protein encoded by this gene cleaves type II collagen more efficiently than types I and III. The expression of MMP13 in osteoarthritic cartilage and its activity against type II collagen indicates that the enzyme plays a significant role in cartilage collagen degradation and must, therefore, form part of a complex target for proposed therapeutic interventions based on collagenase inhibition. It may be involved in articular cartilage turnover and cartilage pathophysiology associated with osteoarthritis. The gene is part of a cluster of MMP genes which localize to chromosome 11q22.3.
