A computational model of the LGI1 protein suggests a common binding site for ADAM proteins. [PDF]
Mutations of human leucine-rich glioma inactivated (LGI1) gene encoding the epitempin protein cause autosomal dominant temporal lateral epilepsy (ADTLE), a rare familial partial epileptic syndrome.

ADAM and ADAMTS Family Proteins and Snake Venom Metalloproteinases: A Structural Overview [PDF]
A disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM) family proteins constitute a major class of membrane-anchored multidomain proteinases that are responsible for the shedding of cell-surface protein ectodomains, including the latent forms of growth factors ...

ADAM-17/FHL2 colocalisation suggests interaction and role of these proteins in colorectal cancer [PDF]
FHL2 is a multifunctional scaffolding protein; its expression is associated with poor prognosis in colorectal cancer. ADAM-17 is a metalloprotease implicated in ectodomain shedding. FHL2 regulates ADAM-17 plasma membrane localisation, and FHL2 deficiency

A disintegrin and metallopeptidase domain (ADAM) 12, ADAM 17 mRNA and ADAM10 protein hold potential as biomarkers for detection of early gastric cancer. [PDF]
AbstractNo biomarker can effectively screen for early gastric cancer (EGC). Players in the A disintegrin and metalloproteinase (ADAM)-natural killer group 2 member D (NKG2D) receptor axis may have a role for that. As a proof-of-concept pilot study, the expression of ADAM8, ADAM9, ADAM10, ADAM12, ADAM17, and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class ...

Role of Some microRNA/ADAM Proteins Axes in Gastrointestinal Cancers as a Novel Biomarkers and Potential Therapeutic Targets—A Review [PDF]
Gastrointestinal (GI) cancers are some of the most common cancers in the world and their number is increasing. Their etiology and pathogenesis are still unclear. ADAM proteins are a family of transmembrane and secreted metalloproteinases that play a role

Expression of ADAM‐9 mRNA and protein in human breast cancer [PDF]
AbstractThe ADAMs (a disintegrin and metalloprotease) are membrane proteins containing both protease and adhesion domains and thus may be potentially important in cancer invasion and metastasis. The aim of our study was to investigate the distribution and potential clinical significance of ADAM‐9 in breast cancer.

Identification of ADAM 31: A Protein Expressed in Leydig Cells and Specialized Epithelia* [PDF]
A family of proteins containing a disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain (ADAMs) has been identified recently. Here, we report the identification of a novel member of the ADAM protein family from mouse. This protein is designated ADAM 31. The complementary DNA sequence of ADAM 31 predicts a transmembrane protein with metalloproteinase, disintegrin ...
