ADAMTS13 endopeptidase (EC 3.4.24.87, ADAMTS VWF cleaving metalloprotease, ADAMTS-13, ADAMTS13, vWF-cleaving protease, VWF-CP, vWF-degrading protease, Upshaw factor, von Willebrand factor cleaving protease, ADAMTS13 peptidase) is an enzyme.[1][2] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

The enzyme cleaves the von Willebrand factor at bond Tyr842-Met843 within the A2 domain

This enzyme belong in the peptidase family M12.
