TMPRSS2 (Transmembrane Serine Protease 2) is a type II transmembrane protein belonging to the serine protease family, encoded by the *TMPRSS2* gene on human chromosome 21. It plays a critical role in proteolytic activation of various substrates, including viral glycoproteins and cellular receptors. Structurally, it consists of an N-terminal cytoplasmic domain, a transmembrane region, and an extracellular serine protease domain. The protease domain contains a catalytic triad (His, Asp, Ser) essential for enzymatic activity.
TMPRSS2 is predominantly expressed in epithelial tissues, notably in the prostate, respiratory tract, and gastrointestinal system. Its physiological functions include regulating epithelial sodium channels, modulating inflammation, and processing hormones like matriptase. However, it gained significant attention during the COVID-19 pandemic due to its role in cleaving the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein, enabling viral entry into host cells. This mechanism highlighted TMPRSS2 as a potential therapeutic target for antiviral interventions.
Recombinant TMPRSS2 protein is produced using expression systems (e.g., mammalian, insect, or bacterial cells) to study its biochemical properties, substrate specificity, and interactions with inhibitors. It serves as a tool for *in vitro* research on viral pathogenesis, host-pathogen interactions, and drug screening. Additionally, TMPRSS2 is implicated in cancer progression, particularly in prostate cancer, where gene fusions (e.g., *TMPRSS2-ERG*) drive oncogenic signaling.
Despite its biomedical relevance, challenges remain in understanding tissue-specific regulation and off-target effects of TMPRSS2 inhibition. Recombinant TMPRSS2 continues to be vital for developing targeted therapies and diagnostics for infectious diseases and cancers.
