Evidence for restricted reactivity of ADAMDEC1 with protein substrates and endogenous inhibitors.

ABSTRACT: ADAMDEC1 is a proteolytically active metzincin metalloprotease displaying rare active site architecture with a zinc-binding Asp residue (Asp-362). We previously demonstrated that substitution of Asp-362 for a His residue, thereby reconstituting the canonical metzincin zinc-binding environment with three His zinc ligands, increases the proteolytic activity. The protease also has an atypically short domain structure with an odd number of Cys residues in the metalloprotease domain. Here, we investigated how these rare structural features in the ADAMDEC1 metalloprotease domain impact the proteolytic activity, the substrate specificity, and the effect of inhibitors. We identified carboxymethylated transferrin (Cm-Tf) as a new ADAMDEC1 substrate and determined the primary and secondary cleavage sites, which suggests a strong preference for Leu in the P1' position. Cys(392), present in humans but only partially conserved within sequenced ADAMDEC1 orthologs, was found to be unpaired, and substitution of Cys(392) for a Ser increased the reactivity with ?2-macroglobulin but not with casein or Cm-Tf. Substitution of Asp(362) for His resulted in a general increase in proteolytic activity and a change in substrate specificity was observed with Cm-Tf. ADAMDEC1 was inhibited by the small molecule inhibitor batimastat but not by tissue inhibitor of metalloproteases (TIMP)-1, TIMP-2, or the N-terminal inhibitory domain of TIMP-3 (N-TIMP-3). However, N-TIMP-3 displayed profound inhibitory activity against the D362H variants with a reconstituted consensus metzincin zinc-binding environment. We hypothesize that these unique features of ADAMDEC1 may have evolved to escape from inhibition by endogenous metalloprotease inhibitors.

Project description:Cu-BTTri (H3BTTri = 1,3,5-tris[1H-1,2,3-triazol-5-yl]benzene) is a water-stable, copper-based metal-organic framework (MOF) that exhibits the ability to generate therapeutic nitric oxide (NO) from S-nitrosothiols (RSNOs) available within the bloodstream. Immobilization of Cu-BTTri within a polymeric membrane may allow for localized NO generation at the blood-material interface. This work demonstrates that Cu-BTTri can be incorporated within hydrophilic membranes prepared from poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA), a polymer that has been examined for numerous biomedical applications. Following immobilization, the ability of the MOF to produce NO from the endogenous RSNO S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) is not significantly inhibited. Poly(vinyl alcohol) membranes containing dispersions of Cu-BTTri were tested for their ability to promote NO release from a 10 ?M initial GSNO concentration at pH 7.4 and 37 °C, and NO production was observed at levels associated with antithrombotic therapeutic effects without significant copper leaching (<1%). Over 3.5 ± 0.4 h, 10 wt % Cu-BTTri/PVA membranes converted 97 ± 6% of GSNO into NO, with a maximum NO flux of 0.20 ± 0.02 nmol·cm-2·min-1. Furthermore, it was observed for the first time that Cu-BTTri is capable of inducing NO production from GSNO under aerobic conditions. At pH 6.0, the NO-forming reaction of 10 wt % Cu-BTTri/PVA membrane was accelerated by 22%, while an opposite effect was observed in the case of aqueous copper(II) chloride. Reduced temperature (20 °C) and the presence of the thiol-blocking reagent N-ethylmaleimide (NEM) impair the NO-forming reaction of Cu-BTTri/PVA with GSNO, with both conditions resulting in a decreased NO yield of 16 ± 1% over 3.5 h. Collectively, these findings suggest that Cu-BTTri/PVA membranes may have therapeutic utility through their ability to generate NO from endogenous substrates. Moreover, this work provides a more comprehensive analysis of the parameters that influence Cu-BTTri efficacy, permitting optimization for potential medical applications.
