    PROTEIN
    PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
    STRUCTURE
    motifs/domains
  • a signal peptide (5,1 kDa)
  • a propeptide domain
  • a reprolysin-type catalytic domain
  • two disintegrin loops, a disintegrin-like domain showed no structural homology to the disintegrin domains of other metalloproteinases such as ADAM10 but is instead very similar in structure to the cysteine-rich domains of other metalloproteinases (Gerhardt 2007)
  • a thrombospondin type 1 (TSP1) module
  • a cysteine rich domain, a spacer domain without cysteine residues, stacking against the active site, suggesting a possible regulatory role (Gerhardt 2007)
  • three C-terminal TSP-like modules, TSP type I motifs and the spacer region responsible for its experimental metastasis-inhibitory activity
  • conjugated MetalloP
    isoforms Precursor a 715 amino acids mature peptide (78.6 kDa)

    basic FUNCTION
  • cell surface adhesion protein, involved in mineralised nodule and bone formation
  • inflammation-induced gene inhibiting endothelial cell proliferation
  • may be implicated in cell migration in retina and in inflammatory eye diseases
  • blocking KDR phosphorylation with consequent suppression of endothelial cell proliferation
  • having anti-angiogenic activity
  • playing an important role for follicular development and involved in the organization of the medullary vascular network
  • capable of binding to and degrading extracellular matrix components (Lu 2009)
  • promotes tumor development through the induction of a stromal reaction (Rocks 2008)
  • involved in tissue remodelling, wound healing and angiogenesis (Gerhardt 2007)
  • inducing the cleavage of SEMA3C and promoting the migration of breast cancer cells, thus contributing to the metastatic program (Esselens 2010)

    Susceptibility
    Variant & Polymorphism
    Candidate gene
  • may be used as marker protein for neurodegeneration
  • molecular targeting of MMP1 and ADAMTS1, combined with inhibition of EGFR, may potentially reduce the risk of bone metastasis for a significant number of breast cancer patients (Lu 2009)
  • Marker
  • methylation status of ADAMTS1 and BNC1 in cfDNA shows promise for detecting pancreatic cancer during the early stages when curative resection of the tumor is still possible
  • Therapy target
