ADAM15 Protein, Human (CHO, His)

ADAM15 protein is an active metalloprotease involved in wound healing, cell interactions, and T cell recruitment. It inhibits airway smooth muscle cell adhesion and migration mediated by beta-1 integrin. ADAM15 Protein, Human (CHO, His) is the recombinant human-derived ADAM15 protein, expressed by CHO , with C-His labeled tag.

ADAM15 protein is an active metalloproteinase that possesses gelatinolytic and collagenolytic activity. It is involved in various biological processes, including wound healing, heterotypic intraepithelial cell/T-cell interactions, and homotypic T-cell aggregation. ADAM15 also inhibits the adhesion and migration of airway smooth muscle cells mediated by beta-1 integrin. It suppresses cell motility towards fibronectin, potentially by reducing the expression of alpha-v/beta-1 integrin through the inactivation of ERK1/2. Additionally, ADAM15 cleaves E-cadherin in response to growth factor deprivation and plays a role in glomerular cell migration and pathological neovascularization. It may also have a role in cartilage remodeling. During sperm epididymal maturation and the acrosome reaction, ADAM15 may undergo proteolytic processing. Its disintegrin domain suggests a potential involvement in sperm-egg binding.
