This cysteine rich domain is found in a variety of ADAMTS and ADAMTS-like endopeptidases widely spread in animals [1,2]. It is a well-conserved cysteine-rich sequence containing 10 cysteine residues [3]. ADAM-TS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase w ...
This cysteine rich domain is found in a variety of ADAMTS and ADAMTS-like endopeptidases widely spread in animals [1,2]. It is a well-conserved cysteine-rich sequence containing 10 cysteine residues [3]. ADAM-TS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin Motifs) is closely related to the ADAM family (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase, Pfam:PF08516) and consists of at least 20 members sharing a high degree of sequence similarity and conserved domain organisation [4,5]. Members of the ADAMTS family have been implicated in a range of diseases [1,6,7].

This cysteine rich domain is found in a variety of ADAMTS peptidases (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin Motifs) which is closely related to the ADAM family (Pfam:PF08516) [1,2]. Members of the ADAM-TS family have been implicated in a range of diseases [3,4,5]. For instance, members of this family have been found to participate directly in processes in the central nervous system (CNS) such as the regulation of brain plasticity [6].
This domain represents the Spacer-1 region from the ADAM-TS and ADAM-TS-like proteins [1]. ADAM-TS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin Motifs) is closely related to the ADAM family (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase) and is a s ...
This domain represents the Spacer-1 region from the ADAM-TS and ADAM-TS-like proteins [1]. ADAM-TS (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase with Thrombospondin Motifs) is closely related to the ADAM family (A Disintegrin and Metalloproteinase) and is a subfamily of the metalloprotease family, sharing a high degree of sequence similarity and conserved domain organisation among its members [2,3]. Members of the ADAM-TS family have been implicated in a range of diseases [4,7]. ADAM-TS-like proteins lack a metalloprotease domain. They resides in the ECM and have regulatory roles [4]. Examples of ADAM-TS-like proteins are papilin [5] and punctin [6].
