Running Title : ADAM33 mRNA profile and postranscriptional effect of 3'UTR Abstract We examined transcript expression and post-transcriptional regulation of human ADAM33, a recently identified asthma gene. A detailed mRNA expression profile was obtained using Northern, RT-PCR and ISH analyses. ADAM33 mRNA was expressed significantly in smooth muscle-containing organs, minimally in immune organs and hematopoietic cells and highly in repairing duodenal granulation tissue. Expression was seen in asthmatic subepithelial fibroblasts and smooth muscle but not in respiratory epithelium. In all tissues, transcripts of ~ 5 kb predominated over those of ~3.5 kb by 2-to 5-fold. The effect of the 3'UTR on ADAM33 protein expression and maturation was examined. The presence of the 3'UTR in untagged full-length constructs promoted prodomain removal, detected as mature ~100 kD protein by ADAM33-reactive antibodies; in its absence, maturation was 2-to 3-fold less in HEK293 cells. His-tagged and untagged constructs lacking the 3'UTR demonstrated that lack of maturation was not via tag-mediated effects. Minimal maturation of ADAM33 occurred in primary lung and MRC5 fibroblasts following adenoviral-mediated expression of ADAM33 lacking the 3'UTR. In contrast, prodomain removal was observed with plasmids and adenovirus encoding only the pro-and catalytic domains. Thus, the 3'UTR of ADAM33 and domains downstream of the catalytic regulate potential ADAM33 activity. Mechanisms of regulation of ADAM33, distinct from closely related ADAMs, thus include mRNA localization and processing and protein maturation.

ADAM Gene Expression in The Adult CNS and Genetic Aberrations in Cancer Cells

ADAM metalloprotease-disintegrins share a common modular structure of functional domains for proteolytic, cell adhesion, and signaling interactions. The metalloprotease domain of oughly half of the known ADAMs contain an intact consensus metzincin catalytic site, and they are thus thought to function as active metalloproteases. The types of interactions mediated by ADAMs are expressly conspicu...

Cellular transdifferentiation into brown adipose-like cells by adenoviral-directed expression or stable transfection of HB-EGF and ADAM 12S

Adenoviral vectors directing the expression of HB-EGF and ADAM 12S were used to better understand the gene expression profile of cellular reprogramming into BAT-like cells compared to HB-EGF and ADAM 12S transfection. Human epidermoid carcinoma cells (A431) were co-infected with HB-EGF and ADAM 12S adenoviruses, monitored for fluorescence and lipid accumulation for 1-3 weeks. Cells were stained...
