EC 3.4.24.81     
Accepted name: ADAM10 endopeptidase
Reaction: Endopeptidase of broad specificity
Other name(s): Kuzbanian protein; myelin-associated disintegrin metalloproteinase
Comments: In peptidase family M12. Partially responsible for the "α-secretase" activity in brain that degrades the potentially harmful β-amyloid peptide. Work with ADAM10-deficient mice supports a role in Notch signalling.
