Gene Information

human ... ADAM2(2515)

General description

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 member is a subunit of an integral sperm membrane glycoprotein called fertilin, which plays an important role in sperm-egg interactions. (provided by RefSeq)

Immunogen

ADAM2 (NP_001455, 376 a.a. ~ 475 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ADAM2 (disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing protein 2) is an integrin binding protein. Absence of ADAM2 in mice causes defects in sperm-egg binding. In addition, it helps in transfer of sperm from the uterus into the oviduct.

Integrins are heterodimeric cell adhesion molecules, with 18 α (ITGA) and eight β (ITGB) subunits forming 24 heterodimers classified into five families. Certain integrins, especially the α(4)/α(9) (ITGA4/ITGA9) family, interact with members of the ADAM (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) family.
