- Summary
- This gene encodes a zinc metallopeptidase that degrades intracellular insulin, and thereby terminates insulins activity, as well as participating in intercellular peptide signalling by degrading diverse peptides such as glucagon, amylin, bradykinin, and kallidin. The preferential affinity of this enzyme for insulin results in insulin-mediated inhibition of the degradation of other peptides such as beta-amyloid. Deficiencies in this protein's function are associated with Alzheimer's disease and type 2 diabetes mellitus but mutations in this gene have not been shown to be causitive for these diseases. This protein localizes primarily to the cytoplasm but in some cell types localizes to the extracellular space, cell membrane, peroxisome, and mitochondrion. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms. Additional transcript variants have been described but have not been experimentally verified.[provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

Abstract
Insulin-Degrading-Enzyme
(IDE) is a Zn2+-dependent peptidase highly conserved throughout
evolution and ubiquitously distributed in mammalian tissues wherein it
displays a prevalent cytosolic localization. We have recently
demonstrated a novel Heat Shock Protein-like behaviour of IDE and its
association with the 26S proteasome. In the present study, we examine
the mechanistic and molecular features of IDE-26S proteasome interaction
in a cell experimental model, extending the investigation also to the
effect of IDE on the enzymatic activities of the 26S proteasome.
Further, kinetic investigations indicate that the 26S proteasome
activity undergoes a functional modulation by IDE through an
extra-catalytic mechanism. The IDE-26S proteasome interaction was
analyzed during the Heat Shock Response and we report novel findings on
IDE intracellular distribution that might be of critical relevance for
cell metabolism.
