S100A8, S100A9 and
S100A12
proteins are associated with inflammation and tissue remodelling, both processes known to be associated with high protease activity. Here, we report that homo-oligomeric forms of S100A8 and S100A9 are readily degraded by proteases, but that the preferred hetero-oligomeric S100A8/A9 complex displays a high resistance even against
proteinase K
degradation.
S100A12
is not as protease resistant as the S100A8/A9 complex. Since specific functions have been assigned to the homo- and heterooligomeric forms of the S100A8 and A9 proteins, this finding may point to a post-translational level of regulation of the various functions of these proteins in inflammation and tissue remodelling.
