    HOMOLOGY
    Homologene
    FAMILY
  • ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) protein family
  • CATEGORY enzyme
    SUBCELLULAR LOCALIZATION extracellular
    basic FUNCTION
  • may play roles in pulmonary cells during fetal development or in tumor processes through its proteolytic activity or as a molecule potentially involved in regulation of cell adhesion
  • ADAMTS12 confers tumour-protective functions upon cells that produce this proteolytic enzyme
  • displays antiangiogenic properties and protect the host toward tumor progression
  • ADAMTS12, independent of its proteolytic activity, plays a specific, non-redundant role in trophoblast invasion
  • ADAMTS7 and ADAMTS12 appear to be potent negative regulators of endplate cartilage development
  • is a degradative enzyme that interacts with the degradable fragments of cartilage oligomeric matrix protein, which is a prominent non-collagenous matrix component in articular cartilage
  • ADAMTS12 is implicated in the inflammatory response by modulating normal neutrophil apoptosis
  • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, degradation
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling
  • ADAMTS12, a downstream molecule of PTHLH signaling, is a novel regulator of chondrogenesis
  • a component
