MMP-7 antibody recognizes latent (pro-) and active human and murine MMP-7. (A) Western blotting of 10 mg of baculovirus-expressed human or murine pro-MMP-7. Sizes (kDa) of molecular weight markers are shown on the left. Conversion to the active form was achieved by incubation in the presence of APMA as described in the text. (B) Binding curves for latent (squares) vs active (triangles) human MMP-7 indicate equivalent binding.
