The two aggrecanases ADAMTS-4 and ADAMTS-5 have been shown to not only play roles in the breakdown of cartilage extracellular matrix in osteoarthritis, but also mediate processing of matrilins in the secretory pathway. The matrilins are adaptor proteins with a function in connecting fibrillar and network-like components in the cartilage extracellular matrix. Cleavage resulting in processed matrilins...
The matrilins form a four-member family of modular, multisubunit matrix proteins, which are expressed in cartilage but also in many other forms of extracellular matrix. They participate in the formation of fibrillar or filamentous structures and are often associated with collagens. It appears that they mediate interactions between collagen-containing fibrils and other matrix constituents, such as...
