1/1000 (when using colorimetric substrates such as BCIP/NBT) and 1/5000 (for chemiluminescent substrates). Higher concentrations of antibody may be needed for samples from more distantly related species. Detects a band of approximately 110 kDa in reduced Western blots of conditioned media or cell lysates. (Predicted molecular weight: 93 kDa). Note: EDTA/EGTA treatment of tissues or lysates is required to see latent zymogen. Dilution optimised using Chromogenic detection.

Function

Transmembrane metalloprotease which mediates the ectodomain shedding of a myriad of transmembrane proteins including adhesion proteins, growth factor precursors and cytokines important for inflammation and immunity (PubMed:24226769, PubMed:24227843, PubMed:28060820, PubMed:28923481). Cleaves the membrane-bound precursor of TNF-alpha to its mature soluble form (PubMed:36078095, PubMed:9034191). Responsible for the proteolytical release of soluble JAM3 from endothelial cells surface (PubMed:20592283). Responsible for the proteolytic release of several other cell-surface proteins, including p75 TNF-receptor, interleukin 1 receptor type II, p55 TNF-receptor, transforming growth factor-alpha, L-selectin, growth hormone receptor, MUC1 and the amyloid precursor protein (PubMed:12441351). Acts as an activator of Notch pathway by mediating cleavage of Notch, generating the membrane-associated intermediate fragment called Notch extracellular truncation (NEXT) (PubMed:24226769). Plays a role in the proteolytic processing of ACE2 (PubMed:24227843). Plays a role in hemostasis through shedding of GP1BA, the platelet glycoprotein Ib alpha chain (By similarity). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage of LAG3, leading to release the secreted form of LAG3 (By similarity). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage of IL6R, leading to the release of secreted form of IL6R (PubMed:26876177, PubMed:28060820). Mediates the proteolytic cleavage and shedding of FCGR3A upon NK cell stimulation, a mechanism that allows for increased NK cell motility and detachment from opsonized target cells. Cleaves TREM2, resulting in shedding of the TREM2 ectodomain (PubMed:28923481).

Activity summary

ADAM17 also known as TACE (tumor necrosis factor-alpha converting enzyme) is a metalloprotease belonging to the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) family. This protein functions by cleaving and shedding extracellular portions of cell surface proteins. It weighs approximately 93 kDa. ADAM17 is expressed in a range of tissues including the heart liver kidney and brain. The protein plays a role in the regulation of various biological processes through the activation and inactivation of membrane-bound precursor proteins.

Biological function summary

The ADAM17 protein regulates a multitude of cellular responses such as inflammation and growth factor signaling. It is not part of a complex but interacts with various substrates in the cell membrane. ADAM17 cleaves precursors to release soluble cytokines and growth factors like tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ligands which modulate cell proliferation migration and apoptosis.

Pathways

ADAM17 plays an integral role in both the TNF and EGFR signaling pathways. These pathways are important in maintaining normal cellular homeostasis. ADAM17 interacts with proteins like TNF receptors and ligands of the EGFR family integrating signaling that affects immune response and cell growth. The regulatory function of ADAM17 in these pathways makes it an important target for modulating cellular responses triggered by external stimuli.

Associated diseases and disorders

ADAM17 has significant implications in conditions such as rheumatoid arthritis and cancer. In rheumatoid arthritis the protein's shedding activity influences inflammatory cytokines contributing to the disease’s pathogenesis alongside proteins like TNF-alpha. In cancer ADAM17's ability to release EGFR ligands affects tumor cell proliferation and metastasis with interactions involving EGFR proteins. It is a target of therapeutic interest with research focused on developing inhibitors to manage these diseases effectively.

    Immunohistochemistry (Formalin/PFA-fixed paraffin-embedded sections) - Anti-ADAM17 antibody (ab39162)

    ab39162 staining human normal colon. Staining is localised to membrane.
    Left panel: with primary antibody at 4 ug/ml. Right panel: isotype control.
    Sections were stained using an automated system DAKO Autostainer Plus , at room temperature. Sections were rehydrated and antigen retrieved with the Dako 3-in-1 AR buffer EDTA pH 9.0 in a DAKO PT Link. Slides were peroxidase blocked in 3% H2O2 in methanol for 10 minutes. They were then blocked with Dako Protein block for 10 minutes (containing casein 0.25% in PBS) then incubated with primary antibody for 20 minutes and detected with Dako Envision Flex amplification kit for 30 minutes. Colorimetric detection was completed with diaminobenzidine for 5 minutes. Slides were counterstained with Haematoxylin and coverslipped under DePeX. Please note that for manual staining we recommend to optimize the primary antibody concentration and incubation time (overnight incubation), and amplification may be required.
