A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase

(Redirected from ADAM)


Function

A Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase (ADAM) are peptidases which cleave off extracellular portions of transmembrane proteins. ADAM family members are numbered.

  • ADAM10 cleaves ephrin.
  • ADAM13 details are in Molecular Playground/ADAM13.
  • ADAM17 (TACE or TNF-α converting enzyme) processes the tumor necrosis factor-α.
  • ADAM33 is implicated in asthma.
  • ADAMTS is ADAM with thrombospondin motifs[1].
  • ADAMTS1 has anti-angionenic activity[2].
  • ADAMTS4 and ADAMTS5 are involved in the degradation of aggrecan.
  • ADAMTS13 cleaves Von Willebrand Factor involved in blood clotting[3].

Disease

ADAM inhibitors are used in anti-cancer therapy. ADAM10 is a therapeutic target for cancer and inflammation [4]. ADAM17 is a therapeutic target for multiple diseases [5]. ADAM33 is implicated in asthma. ADAM33 is a therapeutic target for asthma [6]. ADAMTS4 is involved in various CNS pathologies[7].
