M28 Zn-peptidase Transferrin Receptor-like family; Peptidase M28 family; Transferrin Receptor (TfR) and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA, also called glutamate carboxypeptidase or GCP-II) subfamily. TfR and PSMA are homodimeric type II transmembrane proteins containing three distinct domains: protease-like, apical or protease-associated (PA) and helical domains. The protease-like domain is a large extracellular portion (ectodomain). In TfR, it contains a binding site for the transferrin molecule and has 28% identity to membrane glutamate carboxypeptidase II (mGCP-II or PSMA). The PA domain is inserted between the first and second strands of the central beta sheet in the protease-like domain. TfR1 is widely expressed, and is a key player in the uptake of iron-loaded transferrin (Tf) into cells. The TfR1 homodimer binds two molecules of Tf and the complex is then internalized. TfR1 may also participate in cell growth and proliferation. TfR2 binds Tf but with a significantly lower affinity than TfR1. It is expressed chiefly in hepatocytes, hematopoietic cells, and duodenal crypt cells; its expression overlaps with that of hereditary hemochromatosis protein (HFE). TfR2 is involved in iron homeostasis; in humans, mutations in TfR2 are associated with a form of hemochromatosis (HFE3). PSMA is over-expressed predominantly in prostate cancer (PCa) as well as in the neovasculature of most solid tumors, but not in the vasculature of normal tissues. PSMA is considered a biomarker for PCa and possibly for use as an imaging and therapeutic target. The extracellular domain of PSMA possesses two unique enzymatic functions: N-acetylated, alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase) which cleaves terminal glutamate from the neurodipeptide N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate (NAAG), and folate hydrolase (FOLH) which cleaves the terminal glutamates from gamma-linked polyglutamates (carboxypeptidase). A mutation in this gene may be associated with impaired intestinal absorption of dietary folates, resulting in low blood folate levels and consequent hyperhomocysteinemia. Expression of this protein in the brain may be involved in a number of pathological conditions associated with glutamate excitotoxicity. This gene likely arose from a duplication event of a nearby chromosomal region. Alternative splicing gives rise to multiple transcript variants. While related in sequence to peptidase M28 GCP-II, TfR lacks the metal ion coordination centers and protease activity.

PA: Protease-associated (PA) domain. The PA domain is an insert domain in a diverse fraction of proteases. The significance of the PA domain to many of the proteins in which it is inserted is undetermined. It may be a protein-protein interaction domain. At peptidase active sites, the PA domain may participate in substrate binding and/or promoting conformational changes, which influence the stability and accessibility of the site to substrate. Proteins into which the PA domain is inserted include the following: i) various signal peptide peptidases including, hSPPL2a and 2b which catalyze the intramembrane proteolysis of tumor necrosis factor alpha, ii) various proteins containing a C3H2C3 RING finger including, Arabidopsis ReMembR-H2 protein and various E3 ubiquitin ligases such as human GRAIL (gene related to anergy in lymphocytes), iii) EDEM3 (ER-degradation-enhancing mannosidase-like 3 protein), iv) various plant vacuolar sorting receptors such as Pisum sativum BP-80, v) glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII), vi) yeast aminopeptidase Y, vii) Vibrio metschnikovii VapT, a sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) resistant extracellular alkaline serine protease, viii) lactocepin (a cell envelope-associated protease from Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei NCDO 151), ix) various subtilisin-like proteases such as melon Cucumisin, and x) human TfR (transferrin receptor) 1 and 2.

221-374 7.00e-17

PA_GCPII_like: Protease-associated domain containing protein, glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII)-like. This group contains various PA domain-containing proteins similar to GCPII including, GCPIII (NAALADase2) and NAALADase L. These proteins belong to the peptidase M28 family. GCPII is also known N-acetylated-alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALDase1), folate hydrolase or prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). GCPII is found in various human tissues including prostate, small intestine, and the central nervous system. In the brain, GCPII is known as NAALDase1, it functions as a NAALDase hydrolyzing the neuropeptide N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-L-glutamate (alpha-NAAG), to release free glutamate. In the small intestine, GCPII releases the terminal glutamate from poly-gamma-glutamated folates. GCPII (PSMA) is a useful cancer marker; its expression is markedly increased in prostate cancer and in tumor-associated neovasculature. GCPIII hydrolyzes alpha-NAAG with a lower efficiency than does GCPII; NAALADase L is not able to hydrolyze alpha-NAAG. The GCPII PA domain (referred to as the apical domain) participates in substrate binding and may act as a protein-protein interaction domain.

TfR1 is widely expressed, and is a key player in the uptake of iron-loaded transferrin (Tf) into cells. The TfR1 homodimer binds two molecules of Tf and the complex is then internalized. TfR1 may also participate in cell growth and proliferation. TfR2 binds Tf but with a significantly lower affinity than TfR1. It is expressed chiefly in hepatocytes, hematopoietic cells, and duodenal crypt cells; its expression overlaps with that of hereditary hemochromatosis protein (HFE). TfR2 is involved in iron homeostasis; in humans, mutations in TfR2 are associated with a form of hemochromatosis (HFE3). While related in sequence to peptidase M28 glutamate carboxypeptidase II (also called prostate-specific membrane antigen or PSMA), TfR lacks the metal ion coordination centers and protease activity of that group.

403-618 2.03e-17

M28 Zn-peptidase prostate-specific membrane antigen; Peptidase M28 family; prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA, also called glutamate carboxypeptidase II or GCP-II)-like subfamily. PSMA is a homodimeric type II transmembrane protein containing three distinct domains: protease-like, apical or protease-associated (PA) and helical domains. The protease-like domain is a large extracellular portion (ectodomain). PSMA is over-expressed predominantly in prostate cancer (PCa) as well as in the neovasculature of most solid tumors, but not in the vasculature of the normal tissues. PSMA is considered a biomarker for PCa and possibly for use as an imaging and therapeutic target. The extracellular domain of PSMA possesses two unique enzymatic functions: N-acetylated, alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase) which cleaves terminal glutamate from the neurodipeptide N-acetyl-aspartyl-glutamate (NAAG), and folate hydrolase (FOLH) which cleaves the terminal glutamates from gamma-linked polyglutamates (carboxypeptidase). A mutation in this gene may be associated with impaired intestinal absorption of dietary folates, resulting in low blood folate levels and consequent hyperhomocysteinemia. Expression of this protein in the brain may be involved in a number of pathological conditions associated with glutamate excitotoxicity. Inhibition of GCP-II has been shown to be effective in preclinical models of neurological disorders associated with excessive activation of glutamatergic systems. This gene likely arose from a duplication event of a nearby chromosomal region. Alternative splicing gives rise to multiple transcript variants.

PA_GCPII_like: Protease-associated domain containing protein, glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII)-like. This group contains various PA domain-containing proteins similar to GCPII including, GCPIII (NAALADase2) and NAALADase L. These proteins belong to the peptidase M28 family. GCPII is also known N-acetylated-alpha-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALDase1), folate hydrolase or prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA). GCPII is found in various human tissues including prostate, small intestine, and the central nervous system. In the brain, GCPII is known as NAALDase1, it functions as a NAALDase hydrolyzing the neuropeptide N-acetyl-L-aspartyl-L-glutamate (alpha-NAAG), to release free glutamate. In the small intestine, GCPII releases the terminal glutamate from poly-gamma-glutamated folates. GCPII (PSMA) is a useful cancer marker; its expression is markedly increased in prostate cancer and in tumor-associated neovasculature. GCPIII hydrolyzes alpha-NAAG with a lower efficiency than does GCPII; NAALADase L is not able to hydrolyze alpha-NAAG. The GCPII PA domain (referred to as the apical domain) participates in substrate binding and may act as a protein-protein interaction domain.

PA: Protease-associated (PA) domain. The PA domain is an insert domain in a diverse fraction of proteases. The significance of the PA domain to many of the proteins in which it is inserted is undetermined. It may be a protein-protein interaction domain. At peptidase active sites, the PA domain may participate in substrate binding and/or promoting conformational changes, which influence the stability and accessibility of the site to substrate. Proteins into which the PA domain is inserted include the following: i) various signal peptide peptidases including, hSPPL2a and 2b which catalyze the intramembrane proteolysis of tumor necrosis factor alpha, ii) various proteins containing a C3H2C3 RING finger including, Arabidopsis ReMembR-H2 protein and various E3 ubiquitin ligases such as human GRAIL (gene related to anergy in lymphocytes), iii) EDEM3 (ER-degradation-enhancing mannosidase-like 3 protein), iv) various plant vacuolar sorting receptors such as Pisum sativum BP-80, v) glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCPII), vi) yeast aminopeptidase Y, vii) Vibrio metschnikovii VapT, a sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) resistant extracellular alkaline serine protease, viii) lactocepin (a cell envelope-associated protease from Lactobacillus paracasei subsp. paracasei NCDO 151), ix) various subtilisin-like proteases such as melon Cucumisin, and x) human TfR (transferrin receptor) 1 and 2.

PA_TfR: Protease-associated domain containing proteins like transferrin receptor (TfR). This group contains various PA domain-containing proteins similar to human TfR1 and TfR2. TfR1 and TfR2 are type II membrane proteins, belonging to the peptidase M28 family. TfR1 is homodimeric, widely expressed, and a key player in the uptake of iron-loaded transferrin (Tf) into cells. The TfR1 homodimer binds two molecules of Tf and this complex is internalized. In addition to its role in iron uptake, TfR1 may participate in cell growth and proliferation. TfR2 also binds Tf but with a significantly lower affinity than does TfR1. TfR2 is expressed chiefly in hepatocytes, hematopoietic cells, and duodenal crypt cells; its expression overlaps with that of hereditary hemochromatosis protein (HFE). TfR2 is involved in iron homeostasis. HFE and TfR2 interact in cells. By one model for serum iron sensing, at low or basal iron concentrations, HFE and TFR1 form a complex at the plasma membrane; at increased Tf, Tf competes with HFE for binding of TfR1, resulting in HFE disassociating from TfR1 and associating with TfR2 . The TfR1-TfR2 association might initiate a signal cascade leading to the induction of hepcidin (a small peptide hormone that controls systemic iron levels). Human mutations in TfR2 are associated with a form of hemochromatosis (HFE3). The significance of the PA domain to TfRs has not been ascertained. It may be a protein-protein interaction domain. At peptidase active sites, the PA domain may participate in substrate binding and/or promoting conformational changes, which influence the stability and accessibility of the site to substrate.

418-506 2.87e-04

M28 Zn-peptidase nicastrin, a main component of gamma-secretase complex; Peptidase M28 family, nicastrin subfamily. Nicastrin is a main component of the gamma-secretase complex, which also contains presenilin, Pen-2 and Aph-1. Its extracellular domain sequence resembles aminopeptidases, but certain catalytic residues are not conserved. It is mainly localized to the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi. It is highly glycosylated (Mr 120 kDa) and is essential for substrate recognition of the N-terminus of gamma-secretase substrates derived from APP and Notch. Nicastrin facilitates substrate cleavage by the catalytic presenilin subunit in the gamma-secretase complex. One conserved glutamate is especially important, probably because this residue forms an ion pair with the amino terminus of the substrate. This substrate-binding domain is often called the DAP domain (named after DYIGS, the amino acid stretch that modulates amyloid precursor protein (APP) processing, and Peptidase homologous region). The sequence of the substrate N-terminus is apparently not critical for the interaction, but a free amino group is. Thus, nicastrin can be considered a kind of gatekeeper for the gamma-secretase complex: type I membrane proteins that have not shed their ectodomains cannot interact properly with nicastrin and do not gain access to the active site. Dysfunction of gamma-secretase is thought to cause Alzheimer's disease, with most mutations derived from Alzheimer's disease mapping to the catalytic subunit presenilin 1 (PS1).
