Background: TMPRSS11A

Recombinant Transmembrane protease serine 11a (TMPRSS11a), also known as Airway trypsin-like protease 1 (HATL1), Esophageal cancer-susceptibility gene 1 protein (ECRG1), and HESP is a member of the type II transmembrane serine protease (TTSP) peptidase S1 family from the human airway trypsin-like (HAT) subgroup (1). TMPRSS11a is expressed in select tissues including esophagus, lung, and aged tissue (2,3). Similar to other members of the TTSP family, TMPRSS11a is produced as a zymogen and is autoactivated into disulfide-linked non-catalytic chains composed of the TM and sea urchin sperm protein (SEA) domain and catalytic chains with a highly conserved serine protease (SP) domain (1,4). TMPRSS11a consists of three distinct regions, including an N-terminal cytoplasmic tail, a single-pass transmembrane domain, and an extracellular domain composed of the SEA domain and C-terminal serine protease domain (4).  In human and mouse airways TMPRSS11A is expressed on the epithelial surface (5). Proteolytic cleavage of viral particle surface proteins by TMPRSS11a as a host protease is involved in facilitation of cell entry for influenza A viruses and coronaviruses (5-7). Carriers of the mutant alleles of TMPRSS11A are thought to have increased risk of severe COVID 19 in association with systemic inflammation, hypercoagulability, and organ damage (8). Inhibitors of TTSPs including TMPRSS11a present in the lung have been proposed as broad-spectrum antiviral agents (5). TMPRSS11a downregulation is reported to play a role in cancer as variants are linked to the risk of oral and esophageal squamous cell carcinomas (9-11) and TMPRSS11a was identified as a putative tumor suppressor in human esophageal cancers (12,13). TMPRSS11a is upregulated in aged skin and gingival tissue, inhibits cell migration through binding to integrin beta1 via a putative RGD motif contained within the C-terminal trypsin-like serine proteinase domain to play a role in inducing cellular senescence and attenuate wound healing capacity (3,13) making it a target for skin wound healing during aging (3).
