TACE is synthesized as a zymogen, the latency of which is maintained by its inhibitory pro- domain. In vivo, proteolytic processing of the pro-domain transforms the zymogen into a catalytically active enzyme (3). We demonstrated that reconstructing the zymogen form with stabilized form of ADAM17 pro-domain specifically attenuates ADAM17 enzymatic activity in vitro, in situ and in vivo.

    1.INTRODUCTION

    ADAM17 (A Disintegrin A Metallproteinese) or TACE (TNF-α converting enzyme) sheds large variety of soluble and cell surface proteins in vitro and in vivo including TNF-α (Tumor Necrosis Factor), which considered one of the main pro-inflammatory cytokines (1,2). TACE is synthesized as a zymogen, the latency of which is maintained by its inhibitory pro-domain. In vivo, proteolytic processing of the pro-domain transforms the zymogen into a catalytically active enzyme (3). We demonstrated that reconstructing the zymogen form with stabilized form of ADAM17 pro-domain specifically attenuates ADAM17 enzymatic activity in vitro, in situ and in vivo. Selective molecular control in two different models of inflammatory bowl disease (IBD) indicates the relevancy of inhibiting ADAM17 in T helper mediated inflammation but not in mechanical tissue rapture induced IBD.

    3.ADAM17 PRO-DOMAIN PREVENTS CELL SURFACE SHADDING OF PRO-TNF-α

    ADAM17 PD inhibits cell surface shedding of pro-TNF-α in activated mouse macrophages and CHO cells stably transfected with human TNF-α . Thus, exhibiting

    cross-species inhibitory effect in a dose dependent manner in both cell types.

    2.NEWLY DESIGNED ADAM17 PRO-DOMAIN FOLD SELECTIVELY INHIBITS ADAM17 IN VITRO

    Specifically designed stable fold of human ADAM17 pro-domain (PD) was constructed, over expressed and purified to homogeneity. Isolated ADAM17 PD selectively inhibits ADAM17 in vitro.

    7.CONCLUSSIONS•  The newly designed ADAM17 PD is a natural based selective inhibitor of ADAM17•  ADAM17 PD reduces physical deterioration in T cell mediated colitis •  On going work is focused on improving the molecular design of ADAM17 PD and

    exploring its biological activity in relevant disease models including autoimmune and cancer pathogenesis
