About ADAM8

Cytogenetic location: 10q26.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 10:133,262,423-133,276,868 (from NCBI)

This gene has 11 transcripts (splice variants), 245 orthologues and 20 paralogues. Biased expression in bone marrow (RPKM 22.3), spleen (RPKM 13.4) and 12 other tissues.

Summary

This 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. The protein encoded by this gene may be involved in cell adhesion during neurodegeneration, and it is thought to be a target for allergic respiratory diseases, including asthma. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2009]
