an active metalloprotease - causes the shedding of cell surface proteins including the Drosophila TNF homologue Eiger - cleaves Fra to regulate midline crossing of commissural axons - ADAM17, TNF and the TNF receptor acts in pigmented glial cells of the Drosophila retina - mutation leads to age-related degeneration of both glia and neurons, preceded by an abnormal accumulation of glial lipid droplets - cleaves Neuroligin3 at its extracellular acetylcholinesterase-like domain to generate the N-terminal fragment essential for maintaining proper locomotor activity - active in fat body allowing the cleavage and release of adipose Eiger into the hemolymph - in the brain IPCs, Eiger activates its receptor Grindelwald, leading to JNK-dependent inhibition of insulin production - activates Notch in a ligand-independent manner - targets Delta

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.

None of the polypeptides share 100% sequence identity.
The conserved cysteine present in the cysteine-switch motif binds the catalytic zinc ion, thus inhibiting the enzyme. The dissociation of the cysteine from the zinc ion upon the activation-peptide release activates the enzyme.

The testis specificity index was calculated from modENCODE tissue expression data by Vedelek et al., 2018 to indicate the degree of testis enrichment compared to other tissues. Scores range from -2.52 (underrepresented) to 5.2 (very high testis bias).
Tace transcripts are maternally deposited. They are broadly expressed from embryonic stage 13, particularly in the ventral nerve cord.

Please Note This section lists cDNAs and ESTs that fall within the genomic extent of the gene model, which may include cDNAs and ESTs of genes within introns, or of overlapping genes. Please see JBrowse for alignment of the cDNAs and ESTs to the gene model.
For each fully sequenced cDNA the DGRC maintains various forms of the cDNA (e.g tagged or untagged) in several different host vectors for subsequent cloning and expression in Drosophila and Drosophila cell lines.
