    HOMOLOGY
    interspecies ortholog to murine Adamts2
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motif) protein family
    • CATEGORY enzyme
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular
    text extracellular matrix
    basic FUNCTION
  • a disintegrin-like and metalloprotease, cell surface adhesion protein, procollagen I/II aminopeptide processing enzyme
  • extracellular metalloproteinase responsible for cleaving the N-propeptides of procollagens I-III
  • cleaving the propeptides of type I and II collagen prior to fibril assembly and may be playing a role in development that is independent of its role in collagen biosynthesis
    • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, post translation
    protein, degradation
