TNF-α converting enzyme (TACE, also known as ADAM17) is a zinc metalloprotease that cleaves the membrane-bound precursor of TNF-α to give the mature soluble form of TNF-α.{24091,24093} It also mediates the proteolytic release of several other cell-surface proteins, including TNF-α receptors (TNFRs). TAPI-1, known in the earlier literature as just TAPI, is an inhibitor of TACE that inhibits the cleavage of TNF-α, TNFRI (p60), and TNFRII (p80) with IC50 values ranging from 5-100 µM.{24091,29961,24092} It also blocks the shedding of other TACE-dependent proteins, including IL-6R and Klotho, and may inhibit metalloproteases other than TACE.{24093,15600,29962} TAPI-1 differs from TAPI-0 (Item No. 14694), structurally, by the presence of an aminoethyl addition at the alanyl group, and is generally more stable in tissue culture and in vivo.
