Disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 23is a non-catalytic protein that in humans is encoded by theADAM23gene.[5][6]It is a member of theADAM familyofextracellular matrixmetalloproteinases.

Function

[edit]

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.[6]
