About Adam22

Summary

This gene encodes a member of a disintegrin and metalloprotease (ADAM) family of endoproteases that play important roles in various biological processes including cell signaling, adhesion and migration. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate a mature, functional protein. The protein encoded by this gene is believed to lack metalloproteinase activity due to the lack of a critical catalytic motif. Mice lacking the encoded protein exhibit severe ataxia, hypomyelination and premature death. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms, some of which may undergo similar processing. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]
