ADAM-17 Is Activated by the Mitogenic Protein Kinase ERK in a Model of Kidney Fibrosis [PDF]

open access: greenThe American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2010
Chronic kidney disease affects 1 of 9 Americans. Recent studies showed increased activation of the metalloenzyme disintegrin ADAM-17 during the development of the disease and that threonine phosphorylation of ADAM-17 may be an important regulator of the enzyme activity.

Epigenetic Regulation of a Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase (ADAM) Transcription in Colorectal Cancer Cells: Involvement of β-Catenin, BRG1, and KDM4

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM) family of proteins play versatile roles in cancer development and progression. In the present study, we investigated the role of ADAM proteins in colorectal cancer (CRC) cell migration and invasion focusing on ...

The ADAMs family of metalloproteases: multidomain proteins with multiple functions [PDF]

open access: yesGenes & Development, 2003
The ADAMs family of transmembrane proteins belongs to the zinc protease superfamily. Members of the family have a modular design, characterized by the presence of metalloprotease and integrin receptor-binding activities, and a cytoplasmic domain that in many family members specifies binding sites for various signal transducing proteins.

Detection of the ADAM proteins in the ejaculated bovine sperm

open access: yesInternational journal of health sciences, 2022
The current study aimed to detect specific types of ADAM proteins in the bovine sperm. Histology study of tissue of male reproduction was involved with testis, head, body, and the tail of the epididymis. Results showed that the testis composed of the parenchyma of testis contained the seminiferous tubules which are surrounded by two layers externally ...

Preferred SH3 domain partners of ADAM metalloproteases include shared and ADAM-specific SH3 interactions. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
A disintegrin and metalloproteinases (ADAMs) constitute a protein family essential for extracellular signaling and regulation of cell adhesion. Catalytic activity of ADAMs and their predicted potential for Src-homology 3 (SH3) domain binding show a ...

Role of ADAMs in the Ectodomain Shedding and Conformational Conversion of the Prion Protein [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2009
The cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) is essential for the pathogenesis and transmission of prion diseases. PrP(C) is bound to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol anchor, although a secreted, soluble form has also been identified.

ADAMDEC1 accelerates GBM progression via activation of the MMP2-related pathway

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2022
The ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) gene-related family including ADAM, ADAMTS, and ADAM-like decysin-1 has been reported to play an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple diseases, including cancers (lung cancer, gliomas, colorectal ...

Evolutionary divergence and functions of the ADAM and ADAMTS gene families

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2009
The 'A-disintegrin and metalloproteinase' (ADAM) and 'A-disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs' (ADAMTS) genes make up two similar, yet distinct, gene families.
