Cloning, expression and functional characterization of the full‐length murine ADAMTS13

Abstract: Summary. Functional deficiency or absence of the human von Willebrand factor (VWF)-cleaving protease (VWF-cp), recently termed ADAMTS-13, has been shown to cause acquired and congenital thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP), respectively. As a first step towards developing a small animal model of TTP, we have cloned the complete (non-truncated) murine Adamts-13 gene from BALB/c mice liver poly A + mRNA. Murine ADAMTS-13 is a 1426-amino-acid protein with a high homology and similar structural organization t… Show more

“…The mouse VWF protein amino acid sequence has 83% identity and 91% homology to that of human VWF, with similar variation in the ADAMTS13 sequences. 29,33 Mouse ADAMTS13 has poor activity on the human VWF substrate in both full-length and A2 domain VWF73 assays. 34 This is further exacerbated by a retrotransposon insertion in C57Bl/6 mice that leads to the premature truncation of ADAMTS13.…”

“…Analysis of the relative multimer migration for full-length digests was analyzed as previously described, using a 4-parameter curve fit to determine EC 50 , or ADAMTS13 concentration to cause 50% loss of relative multimer distance. 29 Curve fit F tests for logEC 50 were performed to determine statistical significance.…”

“…The reactions were stopped through the addition of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid at a final concentration of 50mM. 15 Samples were frozen at Ϫ80°C until multimer analysis. Analysis of the relative multimer migration was performed as previously described.…”
