Gene information for ADAM23 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID8745
Official gene symbolADAM23
Full nameADAM metallopeptidase domain 23
Aliases,MDC3,
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. [provided by RefSeq]
