About Adamts13

Summary

This gene encodes a member of "a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs" (ADAMTS) family of multi-domain matrix-associated metalloendopeptidases that have diverse roles in tissue morphogenesis and pathophysiological remodeling, in inflammation and in vascular biology. In certain mouse strains (C57BL/6, for example) an intracisternal A-type particle (IAP) retrotransposon sequence is located in the intron 23 that causes an alternate splicing event resulting in a shorter transcript variants encoding shorter isoforms. The encoded preproprotein undergoes proteolytic processing to generate an active enzyme that cleaves von Willebrand factor (VWF) in circulating blood. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]
