Function and Biology

Crystal structure of catalytic domain of TACE with tartrate-based inhibitor

Source organism: Homo sapiens
Biochemical function: metallopeptidase activity
Biological process: proteolysis
Cellular component: not assigned

EC 3.4.24.86: ADAM 17 endopeptidase

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 (TNF-alpha). Similarly cleaves other membrane-anchored, cell-surface proteins to 'shed' the extracellular domains.
Systematic name:
-
Alternative Name(s):
  • TACE
  • Tumor necrosis factor alpha-converting enzyme
