A sterol-binding pocket in iRhom1 underlies paralog-specific regulation of the sheddase ADAM17
2026-05-01
Abstract excerpt
ADAM17, the major sheddase in mammalian cells, releases membrane-tethered EGFR ligands and inflammatory cytokines, and is a central regulator of cell signalling. The rhomboid pseudoproteases, iRhom1 and iRhom2, function as essential cofactors of ADAM17, controlling its maturation and activation. In contrast to the well-characterized iRhom2, the mechanism and regulation of its ubiquitously expressed paralog iRhom1...
