The adhesion molecule CD99 is essential for transendothelial migration (TEM) of leukocytes. Here we demonstrate by biochemical and cellular assays that CD99 undergoes ectodomain shedding by the metalloprotease meprin ? and subsequent intramembrane proteolysis by ?-secretase. The cleavage site in CD9...
