About ADAM21

Cytogenetic location: 14q24.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 14:70,452,174-70,459,905 (from NCBI)

This gene has 2 transcripts (splice variants), 422 orthologues and 20 paralogues. Biased expression in testis (RPKM 6.0) and brain (RPKM 0.2).

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 expression of this gene expression is testis-specific. [provided by RefSeq, May 2011]
