Adam8 - a disintegrin and metallopeptidase domain 8 Gene
Also Known as MS2; CD156; ADAM 8; CD156a; E430039A18Rik
Species: Mus musculus
About Adam8
This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 245 orthologues, 35 paralogues and is associated with 8 phenotypes. Broad expression in ovary adult (RPKM 21.), thymus adult (RPKM 6.6) and 19 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a member of the Adam family of proteins that contain the disintegrin and metalloprotease domains. The encoded protein is localized to the cell surface, where it is involved in the remodeling of extracellular matrix and cell migration. Mice lacking the encoded protein display persistent inflammation upon treatment with allergens. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple variants. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2015]
