Description
Product Characteristics: Adam23 may play a role in cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. This is a non-catalytic metalloprotease-like protein. Synonyms: Polyclonal Adam23 antibody, Anti-Adam23 antibody, a disintegrin and metallopeptidase domain 23 antibody, AW046396 antibody, MDC3 antibody.
Target Information: 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. This gene is highly expressed in the brain and may function as an integrin ligand in the brain. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
