Gene information for ADAM22 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID53616
Official gene symbolADAM22
Full nameADAM metallopeptidase domain 22
Aliases,MDC2,MGC149832,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease domain) family. Members of this family are membrane-anchored proteins structurally related to snake venom disintegrins, and have been implicated in a variety of biological processes involving cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, including fertilization, muscle development, and neurogenesis. This gene is highly expressed in the brain and may function as an integrin ligand in the brain. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq]
