MMP-2/MMP-9 Inhibitor IV - CAS 292605-14-2 - Calbiochem

General description

A potent, selective, slow-binding and mechanism-based inhibitor of human gelatinases, MMP-2 (K_i = 13.9 nM) and MMP-9 (K_i = 600 nM). It also exhibits a covalent mechanism based behavior in inhibition of these enzymes. This inhibitor appears to have similarity to TIMP-1 and TIMP-2 in the slow-binding component of inhibition. Shown to directly bind to the zinc in the catalytic site of MMP-2. Does not affect the activities of MMP-1 (K_i = 206 µM) MMP-3 (K_i = 15 µM), or MMP-7 (K_i = 96 µM).
