Gene Description

ADAM17 (TACE, TNF-alpha converting enzyme) is a zinc-dependent, single-pass type I transmembrane metalloendopeptidase of the ADAM/adamalysin family and one of the two principal mammalian sheddases. After furin-type removal of its inhibitory pro-domain during transit through the Golgi, the mature enzyme reaches the plasma membrane, where it cleaves the juxtamembrane stalks of many transmembrane proteins and so releases their ectodomains. Its best-established substrates include the membrane-anchored precursor of TNF (which it converts to the soluble cytokine), the EGF-receptor ligands amphiregulin, TGF-alpha, HB-EGF, epigen and epiregulin, the interleukin-6 receptor alpha chain, TNF receptors 1 and 2, L-selectin, KIT, platelet glycoprotein V, FcgammaRIIIA/CD16A, MICA, CXCL16, vasorin, ACE2, TREM2, the DCC guidance receptor and the amyloid precursor protein. Through these cleavages ADAM17 governs the availability of soluble cytokines, growth factors and receptor ectodomains, and thereby acts upstream of EGFR, TNF-receptor, IL-6 trans-signalling, TGF-beta and Notch signalling. Its activity is tightly controlled rather than constitutive: trafficking and activation require an iRhom (RHBDF1/RHBDF2) partner with FRMD8, the enzyme is restrained by the tissue inhibitor TIMP3 and by integrin alpha5beta1 binding to its disintegrin domain, and substrate access is set by lipid-raft partitioning and tetraspanin association. ADAM17 also has a non-proteolytic role as an integrin alpha5beta1 ligand. Loss of activity in mouse is perinatally lethal with epithelial and immune defects and a lean, hypermetabolic phenotype, and a human CANDIS-domain variant that destabilises the protein causes hypotrichosis with woolly hair.

TAS
Reactome:R-HSA-9662747
ACCEPT
Summary: Reactome TAS annotation placing ADAM17 in the Golgi membrane in the context of iRHOM2-dependent ER-to-Golgi transport.
Reason: ADAM17 traverses the Golgi, where the furin-type convertase removes its inhibitory pro-domain; Golgi membrane is therefore a genuine (transient) location of the protein, though not the compartment where it acts on substrates. Direct experimental support exists independently of the Reactome assertion: furin cleavage of the ADAM17 pro-domain was localised to Golgi-derived cholesterol-rich microdomains.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:17010968
during its transport through the Golgi apparatus, ADAM17 is included in cholesterol-rich membrane microdomains (lipid rafts) where its prodomain is cleaved by furin

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Hypoxia (2% O2) raises TACE/ADAM17 mRNA and protein in placental villous explants and cytotrophoblasts, and TACE inhibition or knockdown reduces HB-EGF and amphiregulin shedding there.
Reason: ADAM17 is a target of hypoxic regulation rather than an executor of a hypoxia-response programme: the measured effect is increased ADAM17 expression. The annotation is a fair record of the experiment but describes a condition that modulates the sheddase, not a core ADAM17 function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:18276953
Moreover, hypoxia (2% O(2)) caused an increase in the levels of TACE mRNA and protein in villous explants and primary cytotrophoblastic cells in vitro.
PMID:18276953
Preadministration of a TACE inhibitor in villous explant cultures or transfection of cytotrophoblastic cells with TACE-specific small interference RNA decreased the shedding of HBEGF and AREG.

MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: Curator-inferred (IC) annotation from the airway-epithelium study, in which bacteria induce TACE and IL-6R alpha shedding, with downstream consequences for polymorphonuclear-cell recruitment.
Reason: The experiments measure epithelial TACE induction, IL-6R alpha shedding and IL-6 trans-signalling; neutrophil-mediated immunity is two steps downstream and is not an activity ADAM17 itself executes. The sheddase step is already captured by GO:0006509 and the trans-signalling consequence by the chemokine-production annotation from the same paper.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:16034137
By 4 h of bacterial exposure, TACE colocalized with IL-6Ralpha on the apical surface of airway cells, and by 24 h, soluble IL-6Ralpha accumulated in the cell culture supernatant.
PMID:16034137
Epithelial IL-6 and soluble IL-6Ralpha were shown to participate in trans-signaling, interacting with membrane-associated gp130 to activate CCL-2 expression and inhibit additional CXCL8 production.
GO:0002467 germinal center formation
IEA
GO_REF:0000107
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Germinal centre formation, propagated electronically from the mouse ortholog.
Reason: A downstream organismal phenotype of ADAM17 loss in mouse (ADAM17 sheds TNF, TNF receptors and Notch ligands that shape B-cell responses). ADAM17 does not execute a step of germinal-centre formation itself, so it is kept as non-core rather than accepted as a core function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:38771644
ADAM17), a type I transmembrane metallopeptidase, is responsible for shedding the ectodomains of over 90 substrates, including cytokines (such as TNF-Ξ±), cytokine receptors (such as IL-6R and TNFR), and adhesion proteins

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Germinal centre formation, transferred by sequence similarity from mouse Adam17.
Reason: The ISS source (PMID:10433800) is a mouse cDNA/gene-structure and chromosomal-mapping paper; it establishes 92% identity between mouse and human ADAM17 and TNF-precursor cleavage, but contains none of the immunological or developmental phenotype data the term describes. The underlying mouse knockout biology is real, so the annotation is retained rather than removed, but it cannot be treated as a core human ADAM17 function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:10433800
Mouse TACE/ADAM17 has a 92% amino-acid identity with the human protein and was ubiquitously expressed.
GO:0002532 production of molecular mediator involved in inflammatory response
IEA
GO_REF:0000107
ACCEPT
Summary: Production of molecular mediators of the inflammatory response, by electronic transfer.
Reason: This is a direct and accurate process-level statement of ADAM17's founding activity: it converts the membrane TNF precursor into the soluble pro-inflammatory cytokine, and likewise releases IL-6R, TNFR1/2 and chemokines.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:9034190
We have now purified and cloned a metalloproteinase that specifically cleaves precursor TNF-alpha.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Curator-inferred positive regulation of leukocyte chemotaxis, from the airway bacterial-infection study.
Reason: ADAM17 does catalyse the release of chemoattractants and chemokine receptors (CXCL16 shedding by ADAM10/ADAM17 reduces T-cell chemotaxis when blocked), so the regulation claim has a mechanism. It is nevertheless a consequence of the sheddase step rather than a core function, and the IC evidence here is indirect.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:18373975
Notably, targeting ADAM10 and ADAM17 in hMCs decreased the chemotaxis of T-Jurkat cells, whereas the inhibition of CXCL16 had no significant influence.
GO:0004175 endopeptidase activity
IEA
GO_REF:0000107
MODIFY
Summary: Endopeptidase activity by electronic transfer from the mouse ortholog.
Reason: Correct but less specific than GO:0004222 metalloendopeptidase activity, which the extensive direct evidence supports: ADAM17 is a zinc-dependent adamalysin whose catalytic domain carries the HExxHxxGxxH zinc site. Replacing the generic parent also keeps the review consistent across the rows annotated to this term.
Proposed replacements: metalloendopeptidase activity

MODIFY
Summary: Loss-of-function evidence that ADAM proteases cleave TREM2: FTD-associated TREM2 missense variants abolish ectodomain shedding, and soluble TREM2 is near-absent from patient CSF and plasma.
Reason: The cited paper attributes TREM2 shedding to "ADAM proteases" without naming ADAM17, and its authors later summarise it as showing ADAM10 (see source_defects), so this row does not itself show ADAM17 activity. The activity is true of ADAM17 from other papers, and the term is the generic endopeptidase parent. The informative term for this gene product is GO:0004222 metalloendopeptidase activity: ADAM17 is a zinc-dependent adamalysin whose catalytic domain carries the HExxHxxGxxH zinc-binding site, and the metal dependence is what the inhibitor and DeltaZn-mutant experiments actually report.
Proposed replacements: metalloendopeptidase activity

MODIFY
Summary: TACE/ADAM17 activity used as the reference TNF-converting activity against which MMP-8 prodomain cleavage of TNF-alpha was benchmarked.
Reason: The assayed activity is TNF-precursor cleavage, i.e. zinc metalloendopeptidase activity, so the generic endopeptidase parent understates it. The informative term for this gene product is GO:0004222 metalloendopeptidase activity: ADAM17 is a zinc-dependent adamalysin whose catalytic domain carries the HExxHxxGxxH zinc-binding site, and the metal dependence is what the inhibitor and DeltaZn-mutant experiments actually report.
Proposed replacements: metalloendopeptidase activity
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:25049354
Subsequent experiments showed that MMP-8 exhibits TNF-Ξ±-converting enzyme (TACE) activity by cleaving the prodomain of TNF-Ξ± (A(74)/Q(75), A(76)/V(77) residues) and, furthermore, that M8I inhibits TACE activity more efficiently than TAPI-0, a general TACE inhibitor.

IBA
GO_REF:0000033
ACCEPT
Summary: Phylogenetically inferred metalloendopeptidase activity (PAINT/IBA).
Reason: This is ADAM17's core molecular function and the IBA sits at the right level of specificity: the catalytic metalloprotease domain and its zinc site are conserved across the ADAM17 clade, and the human gene carries abundant direct experimental support for the same activity.

Summary: In vitro binding and cleavage of a NOTCH1 juxtamembrane glycopeptide by recombinant ADAM17, enhanced by GALNT11 O-glycosylation adjacent to the ADAM site.
Reason: Notch binding is an informative substrate-recognition statement and is directly supported: ADAM17 engages and cleaves the NOTCH1 juxtamembrane region in vitro. It is retained as a substrate-binding function rather than as the gene's core activity.
Supporting Evidence:

MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: Notch binding inferred from a human ADAM17 CANDIS-domain variant that destabilises the protein and lowers Notch target-gene expression in patient and knock-in mouse skin.
Reason: The experiments measure NICD abundance and Notch target transcription after loss of ADAM17 protein; no ADAM17-Notch binding assay is reported, and the same paper states that ADAM17 activates Notch only under non-physiological in vitro conditions (ADAM10 is the physiological S2 protease). The binding claim therefore exceeds the evidence in this reference, although the in vitro interaction is independently supported (PMID:24226769).
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:38771644
Conversely, ADAM17 can only activate Notch signaling under nonphysiological conditions in vitro (62–66).

Summary: IL-6 receptor alpha (IL6R) is an ADAM17 substrate: bacterial exposure drives TACE to the apical surface where it colocalises with IL-6R alpha, and soluble IL-6R alpha accumulates.
Reason: An informative substrate-binding molecular function, consistent with the well-established role of ADAM17 in generating soluble IL-6R for IL-6 trans-signalling.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:16034137
By 4 h of bacterial exposure, TACE colocalized with IL-6Ralpha on the apical surface of airway cells, and by 24 h, soluble IL-6Ralpha accumulated in the cell culture supernatant.
PMID:16034137
Epithelial IL-6 and soluble IL-6Ralpha were shown to participate in trans-signaling, interacting with membrane-associated gp130 to activate CCL-2 expression and inhibit additional CXCL8 production.

Summary: Trans interaction between the ADAM17 disintegrin/cysteine-rich region and integrin alpha5beta1, shown by adhesion assays with recombinant ADAM17 fragments.
Reason: A specific, informative molecular function supported by domain mapping: the integrin binds the disintegrin domain in a ligand-receptor manner. This non-proteolytic activity also feeds back on catalysis, since alpha5beta1 engagement restrains ADAM17 sheddase activity.
Supporting Evidence:

PMID:14970227
Because ADAM-17-mediated adhesion was sensitive to RGD peptides and EDTA, and the integrin-binding site within ADAM-17 was narrowed down to the disintegrin/cysteine-rich region, the two molecules appear to have a ligand-receptor relationship mediated by the alpha(5)beta(1) ligand binding pocket.

Summary: Interaction of the extreme C-terminus of TACE with the PDZ3 domain of SAP97/DLG1, mapped by deletion and site-directed mutagenesis, affecting substrate release.
Reason: The evidence identifies a specific interaction module - the ADAM17 C-terminal group-I PDZ-binding motif engaging a PDZ domain - so the uninformative parent should be replaced by GO:0030165 PDZ domain binding, which the gene already carries from the PTPH1 study.

REMOVE
Summary: Interaction with the SH3-domain adaptor Eve-1/SH3D19, whose knockdown reduces ADAM-dependent shedding of EGFR ligand precursors.
Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. The functional readout in this paper is reduced EGFR-ligand shedding, which is already annotated for ADAM17 (GO:0006509, GO:0045742); the interaction itself supports no more specific ADAM17 molecular function here.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:15280379
Knockdown of Eve-1 by small interfering RNA in HT1080 cells reduced the shedding of proHB-EGF induced by angiotensin II and 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, as well as the shedding of pro-transforming growth factor-alpha, promphiregulin, and proepiregulin by 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate, suggesting that Eve-1 plays a role in positively regulating the activity of ADAMs in the signaling of EGFR-ligand shedding.

Summary: Interaction with nardilysin (NRDC), which enhances TACE-mediated TNF-alpha cleavage in cells and in vitro.
Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. The informative content of this reference - that ADAM17 cleaves pro-TNF and that this is stimulated by nardilysin - is already captured by the GO:0004222 and GO:0006509 annotations from the same paper.

Summary: Interaction with ErbB3 in the TGF-beta/TACE/ErbB3 axis of HER2-overexpressing breast cancer cells.
Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. The reference's functional claims concern phosphorylation and surface translocation of ADAM17 and increased shedding of ErbB ligands, which are covered by the shedding and EGFR-pathway annotations rather than by a generic binding term.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:18625725
Treatment with TGF-beta or expression of an activated TGF-beta type I receptor (Alk5 with the mutation T204D [Alk5(T204D)]) induced phosphorylation of TACE/ADAM17 and its translocation to the cell surface, resulting in increased secretion of TGF-alpha, amphiregulin, and heregulin.

Summary: Crystal structure of the TACE catalytic domain in complex with N-TIMP-3, the physiological tissue-inhibitor of ADAM17.
Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. Here the generic term is particularly uninformative because the interaction is an inhibitor binding the ADAM17 active-site cleft - a property of the enzyme's catalytic site that is already expressed by its metalloendopeptidase annotation. GO offers no molecular-function term for being inhibited, so no replacement is proposed.

TIMP-3 (tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinases 3) is unique among the TIMP inhibitors, in that it effectively inhibits the TNF-alpha converting enzyme
PMID:18638486
The structure reveals that TIMP-3 exhibits a fold similar to those of TIMP-1 and TIMP-2, and interacts through its functional binding edge, which consists of the N-terminal segment and other loops, with the active-site cleft of TACE in a manner similar to that of matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs).

Summary: Interaction with iRhom2 (RHBDF2), required for TACE trafficking to the cell surface and for its activity in macrophages.
Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. The biologically important statement - that ADAM17 functions as the catalytic subunit of an iRhom-dependent sheddase complex - cannot be expressed by GO:0005515 and is recorded in the gene notes and in the plasma-membrane/shedding annotations instead.

Summary: Interaction with integrin beta-1 (ITGB1) in kidney mesangial cells, where alpha5beta1 binds and inhibits recombinant ADAM17.
Reason: The partner is an integrin and the interaction is domain-mapped, so the uninformative parent should be replaced by GO:0005178 integrin binding, which the gene already carries from the alpha5beta1 adhesion study.

Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes.

Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. The paper's substantive claim about ADAM17 is that it is the principal sheddase of EGFR ligands and that FRMD8 loss reduces that shedding; both are expressed by existing process annotations.

Summary: Direct interaction between the orphan receptor GPR50 and ADAM17 in hepatocellular carcinoma cells, reported to activate Notch signalling ligand-independently.
Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. The reference assigns the functional consequence to GPR50 (which also raises ADAM17 transcription); it supports no more specific ADAM17 molecular function, and the ligand-independent Notch activation it describes is explicitly non-canonical.

Summary: One row of a proteome-wide quantitative-fragmentomics affinity map of the human PDZ-PBM interactome, in which the ADAM17 C-terminal PDZ-binding motif is paired with a PDZ-domain protein (DLG/MAGI/GRIP/PATJ/SCRIB/WHRN family members).
Reason: Every partner in this set is a PDZ-domain protein engaging the ADAM17 C-terminal group-I PDZ-binding motif, so the informative molecular function is GO:0030165 PDZ domain binding rather than the generic parent; that motif was mapped biochemically in the PTPH1 and SAP97 studies. Note the cached text of the fragmentomics paper reports the interactome method and not the individual ADAM17 pairs, which are in its supplementary tables, so the replacement term is justified from the primary motif-mapping references.

Summary: One row of a proteome-wide quantitative-fragmentomics affinity map of the human PDZ-PBM interactome, in which the ADAM17 C-terminal PDZ-binding motif is paired with a PDZ-domain protein (DLG/MAGI/GRIP/PATJ/SCRIB/WHRN family members).
Reason: Every partner in this set is a PDZ-domain protein engaging the ADAM17 C-terminal group-I PDZ-binding motif, so the informative molecular function is GO:0030165 PDZ domain binding rather than the generic parent; that motif was mapped biochemically in the PTPH1 and SAP97 studies. Note the cached text of the fragmentomics paper reports the interactome method and not the individual ADAM17 pairs, which are in its supplementary tables, so the replacement term is justified from the primary motif-mapping references.
Proposed replacements: PDZ domain binding

The interaction is mediated via binding of the PDZ domain of PTPH1 to the COOH terminus of TACE.

REMOVE
Summary: Interaction with amyloid precursor protein (APP) from the TACE-knockout alpha-secretase study.
Reason: GO:0005515 protein binding carries no functional information about ADAM17 and is removed per the project curation guideline. Removal does not dispute the reported interaction, which remains recorded in IntAct and in the gene notes. The functional content - that ADAM17 performs regulated alpha-cleavage of APP - is already annotated from this same reference as GO:0004222 and GO:0042987, and GO has no APP-binding molecular-function term that could serve as a specific replacement.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:9774383
we now demonstrate that TACE (tumor necrosis factor alpha converting enzyme), a member of the ADAM family (a disintegrin and metalloprotease-family) of proteases, plays a central role in regulated alpha-cleavage of APP.

Summary: Evidence for ADAM17-mediated ectodomain shedding: processing of the membrane TNF precursor by recombinant TACE.
Reason: Membrane protein ectodomain proteolysis is ADAM17's core biological process: the gene product itself catalyses the juxtamembrane cleavage, so the participation requirement is met directly. This row adds an independently assayed substrate and should be retained.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:9034191
The expression of recombinant TACE (rTACE) results in the production of functional enzyme that correctly processes precursor TNF-alpha to the mature form.

KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Cell adhesion mediated by the ADAM17 disintegrin/cysteine-rich region acting as a ligand for integrin alpha5beta1 in trans.
Reason: This is a genuine non-proteolytic activity of ADAM17 - it serves as an integrin ligand, and the interaction reciprocally restrains its catalytic activity - but adhesion is peripheral to the gene's core sheddase function.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:14970227
we now demonstrate a functional interaction between ADAM-17 and alpha(5)beta(1) integrin in a trans orientation
PMID:14970227
Because ADAM-17-mediated adhesion was sensitive to RGD peptides and EDTA, and the integrin-binding site within ADAM-17 was narrowed down to the disintegrin/cysteine-rich region, the two molecules appear to have a ligand-receptor relationship mediated by the alpha(5)beta(1) ligand binding pocket.

ACCEPT
Summary: ADAM17 knockdown attenuates UVA-induced EGFR activation and downstream AKT/cyclin D1 signalling in keratinocytes.
Reason: ADAM17 executes a step of the EGFR pathway rather than merely being required upstream of it: it catalyses the release of the mature EGFR ligands (amphiregulin, TGF-alpha, HB-EGF, epiregulin, epigen) that activate the receptor, which satisfies the participation test.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:18483258
Furthermore, metalloprotease inhibitor GM6001 blocked UVA-induced cell cycle progression, and siRNA knockdown of ADAM17 had a similar inhibitory effect, demonstrating that ADAM17 mediates the EGFR/AKT/cyclin D1 pathway and cell cycle progression to the S phase induced by UVA radiation.
PMID:29897336
In addition, ADAM17 is the principal sheddase of the epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor ligands amphiregulin (AREG), transforming growth factor alpha (TGFΞ±), heparin-binding EGF (HB-EGF), epigen, and epiregulin
GO:0007219 Notch signaling pathway
IBA
GO_REF:0000033
KEEP AS NON CORE
Summary: Phylogenetically inferred (IBA) involvement in the Notch signalling pathway.
Reason: ADAM17 can perform the S2 cleavage of NOTCH1 in vitro, so the term is not wrong, but ADAM10 is the protease for physiological ligand-induced Notch activation and ADAM17 contributes mainly under ligand-independent or non-physiological conditions. The row is retained as non-core rather than accepted as a core ADAM17 process.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:38771644
Conversely, ADAM17 can only activate Notch signaling under nonphysiological conditions in vitro (62–66).
PMID:24226769
We thus propose a model where site-specific GALNT11 glycosylation of NOTCH1 adjacent to the ADAM cleavage site facilitates shedding and activates the pathway by increasing the amount of NICD.

Summary: Recombinant ADAM17 cleaves the NOTCH1 juxtamembrane peptide, and GALNT11 O-glycosylation adjacent to the ADAM site enhances that cleavage and NICD production.
Reason: Notch receptor processing is the proteolytic step itself, which ADAM17 performs in this assay; the participation requirement is therefore met directly. Physiological primacy of ADAM10 at this site does not invalidate the demonstrated ADAM17 activity.
Supporting Evidence:

Summary: Knockdown and overexpression comparison concluding that ADAM9, ADAM10 and ADAM17 all contribute alpha-secretase cleavage of APP in A172 glioblastoma cells.
Reason: The measured activity is zinc-metalloendopeptidase cleavage of APP, so the specific child term is warranted. The informative term for this gene product is GO:0004222 metalloendopeptidase activity: ADAM17 is a zinc-dependent adamalysin whose catalytic domain carries the HExxHxxGxxH zinc-binding site, and the metal dependence is what the inhibitor and DeltaZn-mutant experiments actually report. Note that later neuron-based knockdown work assigns constitutive alpha-secretase activity to ADAM10 and restricts the ADAM17 contribution largely to the stimulated (phorbol-ester) arm, so this reference should not be read as making ADAM17 the principal alpha-secretase.
Proposed replacements: metalloendopeptidase activity
Supporting Evidence:

Reason: The proliferative response is driven by the shed ligands downstream of ADAM17; ADAM17 performs no step of the cell-cycle machinery, and necessity shown by inhibition is not participation. The sheddase step is already annotated (GO:0006509 from the same reference).

Summary: Blocking ADAM10 and ADAM17 in human mesangial cells reduces chemotaxis of Jurkat T cells.
Reason: ADAM17 catalyses release of the chemoattractant (CXCL16 and, per the authors, additional substrates), so the regulatory claim has a mechanism; it is nevertheless a consequence of the shedding step and is best kept as non-core. Note the authors explicitly found that CXCL16 blockade alone did not reproduce the effect, so the responsible substrate is not fully identified.
Supporting Evidence:

Notably, targeting ADAM10 and ADAM17 in hMCs decreased the chemotaxis of T-Jurkat cells, whereas the inhibition of CXCL16 had no significant influence.

Regulation of mast-cell apoptosis is nonetheless a cellular outcome downstream of the shedding step.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:14625290
PMA decreased surface c-Kit levels on mast cells expressing wild-type (+/+) TACE but not on those expressing an inactive mutant (DeltaZn/DeltaZn), confirming the role of TACE in PMA-induced c-Kit shedding.

Summary: Regulation of mast cell apoptotic process, transferred by sequence similarity from mouse Adam17.
Reason: ADAM17 sheds c-Kit, the receptor required for mast-cell survival, and TACE-inactive mast cells show increased basal surface c-Kit with altered survival - so the annotation has a concrete mechanism. Regulation of mast-cell apoptosis is nonetheless a cellular outcome downstream of the shedding step. The ISS source (PMID:10433800) is a mouse cDNA/gene-structure and chromosomal-mapping paper; it establishes 92% identity between mouse and human ADAM17 and TNF-precursor cleavage, but contains none of the immunological or developmental phenotype data the term describes. The underlying mouse knockout biology is real, so the annotation is retained rather than removed, but it cannot be treated as a core human ADAM17 function.

Summary: Expression-pattern (IEP) annotation from redistribution of ADAM17 and alpha5beta1 to the leading edge of wounded HeLa monolayers.
Reason: The observation is relocalisation in a scratch assay using HeLa cervical carcinoma cells, which are not epidermal; IEP evidence of this kind cannot support a specific epidermal wound-healing process term. The underlying observation is retained through the ruffle and focal-adhesion component annotations.

ACCEPT
Summary: TACE-knockout evidence that ADAM17 performs regulated alpha-cleavage of APP, with effects on APP secretion and amyloid-beta formation in cultured cells.
Reason: ADAM17 catalyses the alpha-cleavage of APP itself, so it executes a step of APP catabolism. Scope note: the evidence supports ADAM17 as the protease for the regulated (phorbol-ester/PKC-stimulated) alpha-secretase arm, whereas constitutive neuronal alpha-secretase activity is attributable to ADAM10; the annotation should not be read as making ADAM17 the principal APP alpha-secretase.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:9774383
we now demonstrate that TACE (tumor necrosis factor alpha converting enzyme), a member of the ADAM family (a disintegrin and metalloprotease-family) of proteases, plays a central role in regulated alpha-cleavage of APP.
PMID:20676056
This shows that ADAM10 is not required for PMA induction of APP shedding and suggests that under these conditions ADAM17 can directly cleave APP.

Summary: TNF binding inferred from assays of TACE activity on the TNF prodomain, in a study showing MMP-8 also has TNF-converting activity.
Reason: Substrate binding by a protease is an informative molecular function, and TNF is ADAM17's best-established substrate with a mapped cleavage site. Retained as a substrate-recognition function rather than as the core catalytic annotation.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:25049354
Subsequent experiments showed that MMP-8 exhibits TNF-Ξ±-converting enzyme (TACE) activity by cleaving the prodomain of TNF-Ξ± (A(74)/Q(75), A(76)/V(77) residues) and, furthermore, that M8I inhibits TACE activity more efficiently than TAPI-0, a general TACE inhibitor.

ADAM17 variant causes hair loss via ubiquitin ligase TRIM47-...
REMOVE
Summary: Ubiquitin binding annotated from the hypotrichosis study, in which a CANDIS-domain variant increases ADAM17 ubiquitination and TRIM47-dependent degradation.
Reason: The experiments show that ADAM17 is a ubiquitination substrate - the mutant protein is hyperubiquitinated by the E3 ligase TRIM47 and degraded by the proteasome - which is the opposite direction of the claim: being modified by ubiquitin is not binding ubiquitin, and no ubiquitin-binding assay or ubiquitin-binding domain is reported. The paper's valid molecular-function content (metallopeptidase activity) is annotated separately from the same reference.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:38771644
Further mechanistic investigations revealed that the variant in CANDIS enhanced ADAM17 susceptibility to ubiquitin-mediated degradation by enhancing its association with E3 ubiquitin ligase TRIM47.
PMID:38771644
In summary, our findings indicate that the mutant ADAM17 displays elevated auto-ubiquitination levels, ultimately leading to decreased protein stability and lower abundance.

MARK AS OVER ANNOTATED
Summary: ADAM17 knockdown attenuates UVA-induced AKT activation downstream of EGFR in keratinocytes.
Reason: ADAM17 acts upstream by releasing the EGFR ligand; it performs no step within the PI3K/AKT cascade itself, and siRNA-based necessity does not make it a participant. The EGFR-pathway annotations from the same work already capture the mechanism, and the authors note the inhibition was incomplete.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:18483258
Furthermore, metalloprotease inhibitor GM6001 blocked UVA-induced cell cycle progression, and siRNA knockdown of ADAM17 had a similar inhibitory effect, demonstrating that ADAM17 mediates the EGFR/AKT/cyclin D1 pathway and cell cycle progression to the S phase induced by UVA radiation.
PMID:18483258
The incomplete inhibition of EGFR activation and G1-S transition by siRNA against ADAM17 compared to the metalloprotease inhibitor GM suggests that other mechanisms may contribute to UVA-induced EGFR activation.

ACCEPT
Summary: TACE blockade by TIMP-3, a dominant-negative mutant, or RNA interference suppresses GPCR-stimulated amphiregulin release and EGFR activation.
Reason: ADAM17 catalyses the ligand-release step that activates EGFR, so it executes part of the positive regulation rather than sitting merely upstream of it.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:12743035
The results of this study indicate that treatment of squamous cell carcinoma cells with GPCR ligands such as LPA and carbachol leads to the rapid and specific cleavage of proAR at the cell surface by TACE.

Summary: Positive regulation of EGFR signalling inferred from alpha2A-adrenoreceptor-driven EGFR transactivation and wound healing in intestinal epithelial cells.
Reason: The cached abstract reports broad-spectrum metalloprotease blockade and HB-EGF neutralisation rather than an ADAM17-specific perturbation, so I cannot verify from the available text what identifies ADAM17 here. The claim is well supported for ADAM17 by other references, so the row is left undecided rather than challenged.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:17655843
Both effects are strongly attenuated by inhibition or desensitization of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor, matrix metalloproteinase (MMP) blockade, heparin-binding-EGF neutralization or phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase) inhibitors.

Supporting Evidence:
PMID:16034137
Both Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa were found to potently activate IL-6 expression immediately upon contact with epithelial cells, and by 1 h induced TNF-alpha converting enzyme (TACE) transcription.

Reason: A directly measured cellular response in which the ADAM17 activity is the readout and the mechanism (raft cholesterol depletion repositioning the protease) is established.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:17786981
HDLs added to different cell types, increased the ectodomain shedding of TNFR2, TNFR1, and TNF, an effect reduced by inhibitors active on ADAM17.

Summary: Conditional Adam17 deletion thins Robo3-positive commissures at the mouse ventral midline, and Tace/ADAM17 cleaves the Frazzled/DCC receptor to partition netrin-dependent and -independent signalling outputs.
Reason: ADAM17 performs the cleavage of the guidance receptor that sets its signalling output, so it executes a step of the guidance process rather than being only required for it.
Supporting Evidence:
PMID:36476876
the thickness of Robo3-positive commissures at the ventral midline is significantly reduced in Adam17 cKO embryos, demonstrating that ADAM17 is required in vivo for the midline crossing of commissural axons (Figure 6J).
PMID:36476876
Here we establish a conserved and essential role for Tace and ADAM17 in cleaving Fra and Dcc and demonstrate that this proteolysis bi-directionally regulates axon guidance at the midline.

    Thus, TACE can function as an effector of GPCR-mediated signalling and represents a key element of the cellular receptor cross-talk network.

    Furthermore, metalloprotease inhibitor GM6001 blocked UVA-induced cell cycle progression, and siRNA knockdown of ADAM17 had a similar inhibitory effect, demonstrating that ADAM17 mediates the EGFR/AKT/cyclin D1 pathway and cell cycle progression to the S phase induced by UVA radiation.

Cleavage of cytokine- and immune-receptor ectodomains - IL-6 receptor alpha (generating the soluble receptor that drives IL-6 trans-signalling), TNF receptors, FcgammaRIIIA/CD16A and CD62L on NK cells, MICA, CXCL16 and TREM2 - which reconfigures the surface receptor repertoire and the pool of soluble immune mediators.

    By 4 h of bacterial exposure, TACE colocalized with IL-6Ralpha on the apical surface of airway cells, and by 24 h, soluble IL-6Ralpha accumulated in the cell culture supernatant.
  • PMID:24337742
    We found that recombinant a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM) 17 cleaved the ectodomain of FcΞ³RIIIA/CD16A and a peptide for which the sequence encompasses aa 191-201 of the FcΞ³RIIIA/CD16A stalk region but not ADAM10.

    MICA shedding by tumor cells was inhibited by silencing of the related ADAM10 and ADAM17 proteases

    missense mutations associated with FTD and FTD-like syndrome reduce TREM2 maturation, abolish shedding by ADAM proteases, and impair the phagocytic activity of TREM2-expressing cells

Proteolysis of transmembrane receptors whose signalling output depends on ectodomain removal: regulated (stimulus-induced) alpha-secretase cleavage of the amyloid precursor protein, S2-site cleavage of NOTCH1, cleavage of the DCC/Frazzled guidance receptor, and shedding of vasorin to generate a soluble TGF-beta inhibitor. Note that constitutive neuronal APP alpha-secretase activity and ligand-induced Notch S2 cleavage are attributable mainly to ADAM10; the ADAM17 contribution is the regulated arm.

Supporting Evidence:
  • PMID:9774383
    we now demonstrate that TACE (tumor necrosis factor alpha converting enzyme), a member of the ADAM family (a disintegrin and metalloprotease-family) of proteases, plays a central role in regulated alpha-cleavage of APP.

    the thickness of Robo3-positive commissures at the ventral midline is significantly reduced in Adam17 cKO embryos, demonstrating that ADAM17 is required in vivo for the midline crossing of commissural axons (Figure 6J).

    we show that only the soluble form of VASN inhibits TGFΞ² and that the secretion of VASN is tightly controlled by ADAM17

Suggested Questions for Experts

Q: Should ADAM17's regulated (stimulus-induced) alpha-secretase cleavage of APP be annotated differently from ADAM10's constitutive activity, given that neuronal knockdown assigns the constitutive arm to ADAM10 and leaves the physiological relevance of ADAM17-mediated APP cleavage explicitly open?

Suggested experts: Alzheimer disease curators, membrane proteolysis curators

Q: Is there a GO representation for a protease that functions only as the catalytic subunit of an obligate complex with a non-catalytic partner? ADAM17 requires an iRhom (RHBDF1/RHBDF2) plus FRMD8 for surface delivery and activation, but no sheddase-complex cellular-component term exists.

Suggested experts: GO cellular component curators, sheddase biology experts

Q: How should downstream signalling and proliferation terms be handled for sheddases generally? ADAM17 carries several such annotations (PI3K/AKT signal transduction, G1/S transition, cell growth and proliferation) that record requirement rather than participation.

Suggested experts: GO biological process curators

Q: Which of ADAM17's ~90 reported in vitro substrates are physiologically relevant in vivo, and should GO annotate substrate-specific shedding events only where in vivo evidence exists?

Suggested experts: ADAM/protease biologists, GO annotation consortium

Suggested Experiments

Experiment: Compare APP alpha-secretase product (sAPPalpha) generation in human iPSC-derived neurons carrying catalytically inactive ADAM17, inactive ADAM10, or both, under basal conditions and after muscarinic M1 or PKC stimulation.

Hypothesis: ADAM10 accounts for constitutive neuronal alpha-cleavage while ADAM17 is required specifically for the receptor- or PKC-stimulated arm.

Type: isogenic knock-in neuronal culture with stimulus-resolved sAPPalpha measurement

Experiment: Perform surface-proteome shedding profiling (secretome and surface proteomics) in cells expressing ADAM17 with selective disruption of iRhom binding, raft targeting, or tetraspanin association, to separate substrate repertoires attributable to each control layer.

Hypothesis: Substrate selectivity is set by the sheddase complex and membrane microenvironment rather than by the catalytic domain's intrinsic specificity.

Type: quantitative secretome/surfaceome proteomics with separation-of-function mutants

Experiment: Test whether ADAM17-dependent TREM2 shedding is rate-limiting for microglial TREM2 signalling by comparing soluble and membrane TREM2, phagocytosis and ligand-induced signalling in ADAM17-null versus ADAM10-null human microglia.

Hypothesis: ADAM17 is the principal TREM2 sheddase in microglia and sets the balance between membrane TREM2 signalling and the soluble TREM2 pool measured in CSF.

Type: isogenic human microglial knockout with shedding and functional readouts

Experiment: Determine whether ADAM17 cleavage of a given substrate occurs in cis or in trans in primary cells, using separated co-cultures of protease-null and substrate-null cells for TNF, IL-6R, CD16A and TREM2.

Hypothesis: ADAM17 acts predominantly in cis, so substrate shedding reports on the activation state of the same cell rather than of neighbouring cells.

Type: mixed-genotype co-culture shedding assay
