β¦ Synopsis
An excellent book that reviews the basic concepts and the protocols to detect and purify all the members of MMPs family and their inhibitors- It is useful for new and old reserchers in the area, describing in a clear form the last techniques you have to use in this field. I recommend it. Marta Marco.

From the simple discovery in 1962 that resorbing tadpole tail expressed an enzyme (MMP) that could degrade collagen gels, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) research has advanced to discover more than twenty distinct vertebrate MMPs and four specific inhibitors (TIMPS), a veritable family of enzymes inv
Leading experts detail proven laboratory techniques for the study of MMPs. The methods include those for the expression and purification of MMPs and TIMPs, for the detection of MMPs and TIMPs at both the protein and mRNA levels, and for the assay of MMP and TIMP activities in a wide variety of circu
