Western blot analysis of ADAMTS-16 expression in non-transfected: (A) and human ADAMTS-16 transfected: (B) 293T whole cell lysates and mouse brain tissue extract (C).
ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain with Thrombopondin 1 modules) is a family of zinc-dependent proteases that are implicated in a variety of normal and pathological conditions, including arthritis and cancer. ADAMTS protein family members contain an amino-terminal propeptide domain, a metalloproteinase domain, a disintegrin-like domain and a carboxy-terminus that contains a varying number of thrombospondin 1 (TSP 1) motifs. Structurally, ADAMTS-16 most closely resembles ADAMTS-18. ADAMTS-16 is expressed predominantly in fetal lung and kidney tissues, as well as in adult brain tissue. ADAMTS-16 may play a role in cartilage aggrecan loss in osteoarthritis (OA), a disease of the joints. This role is suggested by a significant upregulation of ADAMTS-16 in OA synovium and cartilage.
