ADAMTS9 KIAA1312

A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 9 (ADAM-TS 9) (ADAM-TS9) (ADAMTS-9) (EC 3.4.24.-)

This gene encodes a member of the ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) protein family. Members of the family share several distinct protein modules, including a propeptide region, a metalloproteinase domain, a disintegrin-like domain, and a thrombospondin type 1 (TS) motif. Individual members of this family differ in the number of C-terminal TS motifs, and some have unique C-terminal domains. Members of the ADAMTS family have been implicated in the cleavage of proteoglycans, the control of organ shape during development, and the inhibition of angiogenesis. This gene is localized to chromosome 3p14.3-p14.2, an area known to be lost in hereditary renal tumors. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms that may undergo similar proteolytic processing. [provided by RefSeq, Jan 2016],

Catalytic activity:Cleaves aggrecan at the 1838-Glu-|-Ala-1839 site and versican at the 1428-Glu-|-Ala-1429 site.,cofactor:Binds 1 zinc ion per subunit.,Domain:The ancillary domains, including the TSRs domain, are required for specific extracellular localization and for its versicanase and aggrecanase activities.,Domain:The conserved cysteine present in the cysteine-switch motif binds the catalytic zinc ion, thus inhibiting the enzyme. The dissociation of the cysteine from the zinc ion upon the activation-peptide release activates the enzyme.,Domain:The spacer domain and the TSP type-1 domains are important for a tight interaction with the extracellular matrix.,Function:Cleaves the large aggregating proteoglycans, aggrecan and versican.,PTM:The precursor is cleaved by a furin endopeptidase.,similarity:Contains 1 disintegrin domain.,similarity:Contains 1 GON domain.,similarity:Contains 1 peptidase M12B domain.,similarity:Contains 15 TSP type-1 domains.,tissue specificity:Highly expressed in all fetal tissues. Expressed in a number of adult tissues with highest expression in heart, placenta and skeletal muscle.,
