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].
The members of this family are enzymes that cleave peptides. These proteases require zinc for catalysis. Members of this family are also known as adamalysins. Most members of this family are snake venom endopeptidases, but there are also some mammal ...
The members of this family are enzymes that cleave peptides. These proteases require zinc for catalysis. Members of this family are also known as adamalysins. Most members of this family are snake venom endopeptidases, but there are also some mammalian proteins such as Swiss:P78325, and fertilin Swiss:Q28472. Fertilin and closely related proteins appear to not have some active site residues and may not be active enzymes.
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].
