Mouse Anti-CD156
ADAM8; MS2; CD156a
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 protein encoded by this gene may be involved in cell adhesion during neurodegeneration and it is thought to be a target for allergic respiratory diseases including asthma. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
