OverviewNCBI Gene
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. Unlike other members of the ADAM protein family, the protein encoded by this gene lacks metalloprotease activity since it has no zinc-binding motif. This gene is highly expressed in the brain and may function as an integrin ligand in the brain. In mice, it has been shown to be essential for correct myelination in the peripheral nervous system. Alternative splicing results in several transcript variants.[provided by RefSeq, Dec 2010]

Antibody and autoantibody relevanceSeroatlas analysis
Seroatlas reads ADAM22 as an antibody target. Whether an autoantibody or antibody against ADAM22 could matter depends on whether native ADAM22 is physically reachable, whether the body needs it intact, and whether it acts in a disease-relevant tissue.
ADAM22 is annotated at the cell surface, where native ADAM22 is exposed to circulating antibodies and is a prime autoantibody target that could block, deplete, or overstimulate it.
Annotation status
The present source text does not explicitly label ADAM22 as an autoantigen. Seroatlas presents hypothesis context only and does not manufacture a known-serology claim.
