Genomic structure and functional characterization of the human ADAM10 promoter

Abstract: The ADAM10 gene encodes a membrane-bound disintegrin-metalloproteinase, which, after overexpression in an Alzheimer disease (AD) mouse model, prevents amyloid pathology and improves long-term potentiation and memory. Because enhancing ADAM10 expression appears to be a reasonable approach for treatment of AD, we functionally analyzed the ADAM10 gene. Both human and mouse ADAM10 genes comprise approximately 160 kbp, are composed of 16 exons, and are evolutionarily highly conserved within 500 bp upstream of eithe… Show more

“…Specifically, retinoic acid enhances ADAM10 transcription by promoting the binding of a non-permissive dimer of retinoic acid receptor-␣ and retinoid X receptor-␤ to retinoic acid-respon- sive elements in the promoter of the ADAM10 gene (57,58). ADAM10 transcription is also regulated by PAX2 in renal cancer cells (59) and melanocytes (60).…”

“…ADAM10 is a multidomain transmembrane glycoprotein which is expressed ubiquitously (6). It contains an N-terminal signal sequence followed by a prodomain, a metalloprotease domain, a disintegrin domain, a cysteine-rich region, an EGFlike repeat, a transmembrane domain and a SH3-binding cytoplasmic tail (7).…”
