Gene information for ADAM21 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID8747
Official gene symbolADAM21
Full nameADAM metallopeptidase domain 21
Aliases,ADAM 21,ADAM31,MGC125389,
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 lacks introns and its expression is testis-specific. [provided by RefSeq]
