gene ADAMTS2, two isozymes from alternative splicing mechanism. Beside the classical 1211 amino acid full length enzyme, a shorter form has been described. It is formed by the first 543 amino acids of the long form (corresponding to exons 1-10) followed by 23 amino acids encoded by an alternative exon present in intron 10 of the long form | Homo sapiens |

proteolytic modification | ADAMTS2 is synthesized as an inactive proenzyme which is activated by mammalian subtilisins, such as furin, which cleave between the prodomain and the metalloproteinase domain. It has also been shown that an autocatalytic cleavage occurring within the carboxy-terminal end, possibly in the PNP-domain, increases its activity | Homo sapiens |

More | further to proteolytic processing, the domain composition of ADAMTS2 can also result from an alternative splicing mechanism. Beside the classical 1211 amino acid full length enzyme, a shorter form has been described. It is formed by the first 543 amino acids of the long form (corresponding to exons 1-10) followed by 23 amino acids encoded by an alternative exon present in intron 10 of the long form. This truncated form does contain the metalloproteinase domain but does not show any significant aminoprocollagen peptidase activity | Homo sapiens |

evolution | the procollagen N-propeptidase belongs to the 'a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin type I domain' proteases (ADAMTS) family, M12B ADAM branch. Beside their specific enzymatic activity, the members are characterized by the presence of four thrombospondin type I domains (TSR1) and a C-terminal procollagen N-proteinase (PNP) domain comprising a protease-and-lacunin (PLAC) domain | Homo sapiens |

malfunction | in Adamts2-KO mouse livers, collagen fibers are thinner and more irregular than in the control littermates, which correlated also with faster collagen degradation. Fragility of the skin occurs in Adamts2-KO mice | Mus musculus |
malfunction | in vivo, the formation of tumors in nude mice by HEK cells is strongly reduced when they overexpress ADAMTS2, an observation that is correlated to a reduced intratumoral vascularization but that might also involve direct anti-tumor effects. The absence of ADAMTS2 activity leads to a different type of disease, the dermatosparactic type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS, also previously known as EDS-type VIIC). The main clinical manifestation of this rare genetic disease is the fragility of the skin, as in Adamts2-KO mice, but joint laxity is usually only moderate, which contrasts with the hypermobility in arthrochalasic EDS. The arthrochalasic type of EDS, caused by mutations affecting the aminoprocollagen cleavage site in alpha1 or alpha2 type I procollagen, is mainly characterized by joint hyperlaxity while skin collagen fibers are only moderately affected.

physiological function | ADAMTS2 and ADAMTS3, but not ADAMTS14, are more abundant in the culprit plaques from patients presenting with acute myocardial infarction (AMI) versus stable angina. Their expression overlap the area positive for CD31 or CD68 suggesting their expression by endothelial cells or macrophages. The Adamts14 gene is potentially implicated in knee osteoarthritis in woman | Homo sapiens |
physiological function | ADAMTS2 induces the apoptosis of endothelial cells by a mechanism independent of its catalytic activity but potentially related to interactions with a cell surface receptor by one of its C-terminal domains. The role of ADAMTS2 is crucial for collagen fibrils formation | Mus musculus |
