A disintegrin and metalloprotease 17 (ADAM17), also called TACE (tumor necrosis factor-α-converting enzyme), is a 70-kDa enzyme that belongs to the ADAM protein family of disintegrins and metalloproteases, activated by substrate presentation.
ADAMs (short for a disintegrin and metalloproteinase) are a family of single-pass transmembrane and secreted metalloendopeptidases. [1] [2] All ADAMs are characterized by a particular domain organization featuring a pro-domain, a metalloprotease, a disintegrin, a cysteine-rich, an epidermal-growth factor like and a transmembrane domain, as well as a C-terminal cytoplasmic tail.

Hyper-IgD syndrome (Mevalonate kinase deficiency) CIAS1-related diseases: Muckle–Wells syndrome; Familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome, types 1, 2, 3, and 4; Neonatal onset multisystem inflammatory disease; NLRP1 deficiency; PAPA syndrome (pyogenic sterile arthritis, pyoderma gangrenosum, acne) ADAM17 deficiency; Blau syndrome
Blum originated the term "reward deficiency syndrome". There is no consensus among addiction researchers that empirical evidence exists to justify such a concept. [ 1 ] He holds multiple patents relating to genetic testing and treatment for the supposed syndrome that have been licensed through various different corporations.
Smith–Magenis syndrome (SMS), also known as 17p-microdeletion syndrome, is a microdeletion syndrome characterized by an abnormality in the short (p) arm of chromosome 17. [1] It has features including intellectual disability , facial abnormalities, difficulty sleeping, and numerous behavioral problems such as self-harm.
Methylmalonic acidemia has an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance.. Methylmalonic acidemias have an autosomal recessive inheritance pattern, which means the defective gene is located on an autosome, and two copies of the gene—one from each parent—must be inherited to be affected by the disorder.
Abetalipoproteinemia (also known as: Bassen–Kornzweig syndrome, microsomal triglyceride transfer protein deficiency disease, MTP deficiency, and betalipoprotein deficiency syndrome [2]) is a disorder characterized by abnormal absorption of fat and fat-soluble vitamins from food. [3]
Peroxisomal disorders represent a class of medical conditions caused by defects in peroxisome functions. [1] This may be due to defects in single enzymes [2] important for peroxisome function or in peroxins, proteins encoded by PEX genes that are critical for normal peroxisome assembly and biogenesis.
