• CAT Number: I040423
• CAS Number: 9001-12-1
• Purity: ≥95%

Collagenases are enzymes that break the peptide bonds in collagen. Collagenases are derived from the Clostridium histolyticum. Collagenases (Type I) are proteolytic enzymes that break peptide bonds in collagen and can be used for tissue digestion and dissociation.
Collagenase is believed to be important for cell migration and collagen remodeling during tissue repair and regeneration.
Activated collagenase produced the characteristic 3/4 fragment of collagen[1].
