ADAMTS5 (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5), also known as aggrecanase-2 and ADAMTS11, is a member of the family of secreted zinc proteases with a multi-domain structure (1, 2).
The protein precursors consist of signal peptide and following domains: pro, catalytic, disintegrin-like, TS type 1 motif, cysteine-rich, spacer and a variable number of TS type 1 motifs.
ADAMTS5 is an active protease effectively cleaving alpha 2-macroglobulin (3), aggrecan (4), and brevican (5), and is inhibited by TIMP-3 with inhibition constants in the subnanomolar range (6).
Based on the murine model studies (7, 8), this protease may be a key enzyme in the degradation of cartilage leading to osteoarthritis and recombinant human eumatoid arthritis.
The purified recombinant human ADAMTS5 starts at theN‑terminus of the catalytic domain and ends at the C-terminus of the TSP-1 domain.
The amino acid sequence of recombinant human ADAMTS5 is 98%, 97%, and 96% identical to that of canine, bovine, and mouse/rat.
The aggrecanase activity can be inhibited by 5 mM 1,10-phenanthroline and recombinant human TIMP-3.
