ENZYME entry: EC 3.4.24.86

Accepted Name
ADAM 17 endopeptidase
Alternative Name(s)
TACE
tumor necrosis factor alpha-converting enzyme
Reaction catalysed
Narrow endopeptidase specificity. Cleaves Pro-Leu-Ala-Gln-Ala-|-Val-Arg-Ser-Ser-Ser in the membrane-bound, 26-kDa form of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha). Similarly cleaves other membrane-anchored, cell-surface proteins to 'shed' the extracellular domains
Comment(s)
  • In vivo, the cleavage of tumor necrosis factor alpha precursor releases the soluble, 17-kDa TNF-alpha, which induces inflammation.
  • Belongs to peptidase family M12.
