A disintegrin & metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type 1 motif 19; ADAMTS-19; ADAM-TS 19; ADAM-TS19 (ADAMTS19)

Function

• precursor is cleaved by a furin endopeptidase

Cofactor: binds 1 Zn+2 per subunit (putative)

Structure

• the conserved Cys present in the cysteine-switch motif binds the catalytic Zn+2, thus inhibiting the enzyme
• dissociation of Cys from Zn+2 upon activation- peptide release activates the enzyme
• contains 1 disintegrin domain
• contains 1 peptidase M12B domain
• contains 1 PLAC domain
• contains 5 TSP type-1 domains

Compartment

• secreted, extracellular space, extracellular matrix (putative)

Expression

• expressed in fetal lung
• not expressed in any adult tissues examined

Pathology

• expression detected in an osteosarcoma cDNA library

More general terms

• ADAMTS protease
• phosphoprotein
• glycoprotein
