Gene: ADAMTSL1
Alternate names for this Gene: ADAMTSL-1|ADAMTSR1|C9orf94|PUNCTIN
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a secreted protein and member of the ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motif) family. This protein lacks the metalloproteinase and disintegrin-like domains, which are typical of the ADAMTS family, but contains other ADAMTS domains, including the thrombospondin type 1 motif. This protein may have important functions in the extracellular matrix. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding distinct proteins.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 9
Location in Chromosome : 9p22.2-p22.1
Description of this Gene: ADAMTS like 1
Type of Gene: protein-coding
