additional information eight astacins with a minimal structure (a signal peptide, an activation domain and a Zn-binding catalytic domain), that are colocalized in large cells organized in a peculiar, not yet morphologically characterized, two-ring-shaped structure located in the middle of the body. A single astacin Smed-ast-8, characterized by a ShK toxin domain in its C-terminal region, has been found to be produced in gastrodermal cells. Smed-ast-1 almost completely colocalizes with Smed-ast-2, Smedast-3, Smed-ast-4, Smed-ast-5, Smed-ast-6, Smed-ast-7 and Smed-ast-9. Planarian astacins are exclusive for post-mitotic differentiated cells Schmidtea mediterranea

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
evolution structural organization of the astacin-like gene family in planarians, overview. All members of the astacin family are characterized by two key elements: the 18-amino acid zinc-binding motif (HEXXHXXGFXHEXXRXDR), and the methionine-turn (Met-turn) sequence SXMHY Schmidtea mediterranea
physiological function the astacin gene family of metalloproteinases in planarians, good candidate enzymes for generating dynamicity in the extracellular matrix. Astacins are secreted and membrane-bound metzincin metallopeptidases widespread among different animal phyla and involved in various physiological processes, including digestion, extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling, morphogenesis, hatching, tissue remodeling, and differentiation Schmidtea mediterranea
