A Novel Human Metalloprotease Synthesized in the Liver and Secreted into the Blood: Possibly, the von Willebrand Factor—Cleaving Protease?

We identified a novel metalloprotease, which could be responsible for cleaving the Tyr842-Met843 peptide bond of von Willebrand factor (vWF). This metalloprotease was purified from Conn Fraction-I precipitate of human pooled plasma by the combination of gel filtration, DEAE chromatography, and prepa...
