Background: ADAM23

ADAM23 (a disintegrin and metalloprotease domain 23; also MDC3) is a member of the M12B peptidase family of enzymes. It is synthesized as an approximately 100 kDa glycosylated proprotein that consists of a 227 amino acid (aa) propeptide, a 506 aa extracellular domain (ECD), a 21 aa transmembrane segment, and a 19 aa cytoplasmic domain (1, 2). The ECD contains a nonfunctional metalloprotease domain, an integrin‑binding disintegrin domain, and a cysteine‑rich region. Proteolytic removal of the propeptide generates an approximately 70 kDa mature protein (2). Within the propeptide, peptidase, and disintegrin domains (aa 60‑585), human ADAM23 shares 93% aa sequence identity with mouse and rat ADAM23. Alternative splicing of human ADAM23 yields additional isoforms (including a potentially secreted molecule) by substitution of the transmembrane and cytoplasmic regions (3). ADAM23 is expressed in the brain, notably on pyramidal cells of the cerebral cortex and hippocampus and on cerebellar Purkinje and granule cells (1, 2, 4‑6). ADAM23 binds the prion protein PrPC and the leucine‑rich glioma inactivated proteins LGI1 and LGI4 (7, 8). Its interaction with LGI1 promotes neurite outgrowth and dendrite arborization on pyramidal neurons (5). LGI1 appears to function as a trans‑synaptic bridge between ADAM23 and ADAM22 (6). In adipose tissue, the binding of ADAM23 to LGI3 inhibits adipocyte differentiation and lipid accumulation (9). ADAM23 is also expressed on bronchial epithelial cells (10). It serves as a counter‑receptor for Integrin alphaV beta3 and can limit integrin activation and adhesion to alphaV beta3 ligands (4, 11). ADAM23 expression is down‑regulated in some breast and non‑small cell lung carcinomas (10, 12).
