Target Information
Target NameA Disintegrin And Metalloproteinase With Thrombospondin Motifs 4; Adam-Ts 4; Adam-Ts4; Adamts-4; Admp-1; Aggrecanase-1Database LinksUniprot ID: PGS2_HUMAN ; Reactome: R-HSA-1474228 ; Gene ID: 9507About TargetTissue Specificity: Expressed in brain, lung and heart. Expressed at very low level in placenta and skeletal muscles. Isoform 2: Detected in osteoarthritic synovium.
Function: Cleaves aggrecan, a cartilage proteoglycan, and may be involved in its turnover. May play an important role in the destruction of aggrecan in arthritic diseases. Could also be a critical factor in the exacerbation of neurodegeneration in Alzheimer disease. Cleaves aggrecan at the '392-Glu-|-Ala-393' site.
