TACE is a member of the ADAM family that contains A Disintegrin And Metalloprotease-like domain. Like other membrane-anchored ADAMs, TACE consists of a pro domain with a cysteine switch and furin cleavage sequence, a catalytic domain with the zinc-binding site and Met-turn expected for reprolysins, a disintegrin-like domain, a cysteine-rich domain, an EGF-like domain, a transmembrane domain, and the cytoplasmic domain. In addition to its ability to release the 17 kDa extracellular form of tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha ) from the 26 kDa membrane-anchored TNF-alpha, TACE also plays an essential role in shedding ectodomains from a variety of proteins such as L-Selectin, Transforming Growth Factor-alpha, Amyloid Protein Precursor, and Notch-1 receptor. TACE mRNA is present in virtually every tissue and TACE protein resides both on the cell surface and in the cell.

Recombinant Human TACE/ADAM17 Protein SEC-MALS.
Recombinant Human TACE/ADAM17 Protein (Catalog # 930-ADB) has a molecular weight (MW) of 58-64 kDa as analyzed by SEC-MALS, suggesting that this protein is a monomer. MW may differ from predicted MW due to post-translational modifications (PTMs) present (i.e. Glycosylation).Formulation, Preparation, and Storage

Protocols
View specific protocols for Recombinant Human TACE/ADAM17 Protein, CF (930-ADB):
- Assay Buffer: 25 mM Tris, 2.5 μM ZnCl2, 0.005% Brij-35 (w/v), pH 9.0 (note: It is extremely important that the assay solution does not contain salt (CaCl2, NaCl, Na2SO4) because it inhibits TACE activity).
- Recombinant Human TACE/ADAM17 (rhTACE) (Catalog # 930-ADB)
- Substrate: MCA-Pro-Leu-Ala-Gln-Ala-Val-DPA-Arg-Ser-Ser-Ser-Arg-NH2 (Catalog # ES003), 2 mM stock in DMSO
- F16 Black Maxisorp Plate (Nunc, Catalog # 475515)
- Fluorescent Plate Reader (Model: SpectraMax Gemini EM by Molecular Devices) or equivalent
- Dilute rhTACE to 0.2 ng/µL in Assay Buffer.
- Dilute Substrate to 20 µM in Assay Buffer.
- In a plate load 50 µL of 0.2 ng/µL rhTACE and start the reaction by adding 50 µL of 20 µM Substrate. Include a Substrate Blank containing 50 μL Assay Buffer and 50 µL Substrate.
- Read at excitation and emission wavelengths of 320 nm and 405 nm (top read), respectively in kinetic mode for 5 minutes.

FAQs for Recombinant Human TACE/ADAM17 Protein, CF

Q: If the Recombinant Human TACE/ADAM17 Protein, CF (Catalog # 930-ADB) is supplied in solution consisting of 25 mM Tris, 200 mM NaCl and 0.02%(w/v) Brij-35, does the 200 mM NaCl in the formulation inhibit the activity of the protein?
A: We would not expect the 200 mM NaCl salt to affect the stability of the 930-ADB enzyme. The reconstituted material will be with DI water and is generally further diluted >1000-fold for assays, so the inhibition by NaCl becomes negligible and no impact in the activity has been observed. Ample dilution of the enzyme is necessary to ensure there are no negative effects from the salt in the formulation.
