Name
ADAM metallopeptidase domain 17
Synonyms
  • a disintegrin and metalloproteinase 17
  • a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain 17
Biotype
protein coding gene
Automated Description
Enables several functions, including PDZ domain binding activity; metalloendopeptidase activity involved in amyloid precursor protein catabolic process; and signaling receptor binding activity. Involved in several processes, including positive regulation of macromolecule metabolic process; regulation of signal transduction; and response to bacterium. Located in several cellular components, including apical plasma membrane; focal adhesion; and ruffle membrane. Implicated in Alzheimer's disease; inflammatory bowel disease; and type 2 diabetes mellitus. Biomarker of renal fibrosis.
RGD 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 biologic processes involving cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, including fertilization, muscle development, and neurogenesis. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protease. The encoded protease functions in the ectodomain shedding of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, in which soluble tumor necrosis factor-alpha is released from the membrane-bound precursor. This protease also functions in the processing of numerous other substrates, including cell adhesion proteins, cytokine and growth factor receptors and epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor ligands, and plays a prominent role in the activation of the Notch signaling pathway. Elevated expression of this gene has been observed in specific cell types derived from psoriasis, rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and Crohn's disease patients, suggesting that the encoded protein may play a role in autoimmune disease. Additionally, this protease may play a role in viral infection through its cleavage of ACE2, the cellular receptor for SARS-CoV and SARS-CoV-2. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]
