Fluorescent substrates for the proteinases ADAM17, ADAM10, ADAM8, and ADAM12 useful for high-throughput inhibitor screening.
    Analytical biochemistry, 2007, Jul-15, Volume: 366, Issue:2

    In this paper we describe novel fluorescent substrates for the human ADAM family members ADAM17, ADAM10, ADAM8, and ADAM12 that have good specificity constants and are useful for high-throughput screening of inhibitors. The fluorescence resonance energy transfer substrates contain a 4-(4-dimethylaminophenylazo)benzoyl and 5-carboxyfluorescein (Dabcyl/Fam) pair and are based on known cleavage sequences in precursor tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and CD23. The precursor TNF-alpha-based substrate, Dabcyl-Leu-Ala-Gln-Ala-Homophe-Arg-Ser-Lys(Fam)-NH2, is a good substrate for all the ADAMs tested, including ADAM12 for which there is no reported fluorescent substrate. The CD23-based substrate, Dabcyl-His-Gly-Asp-Gln-Met-Ala-Gln-Lys-Ser-Lys(Fam)-NH2, is more selective, being hydrolyzed efficiently only by ADAM8 and ADAM10. The substrates were used to obtain inhibition constants for four inhibitors that are commonly used in shedding assays: TMI-1, GM6001, GW9471, and TAPI-2. The Wyeth Aerst compound, TMI-1, is a potent inhibitor against all of the ADAMs tested and is slow binding against ADAM17.
