Primary Identifier | MGI:1098667 | Organism | mouse, laboratory |
Chromosome | 11 | NCBI Gene Number | 11488 |
Mgi Type | protein coding gene |
description | FUNCTION: Automated description from the Alliance of Genome Resources (Release 7.1.0) Predicted to enable metalloendopeptidase activity. Involved in behavioral response to acetic acid induced pain; behavioral response to formalin induced pain; and establishment of protein localization. Predicted to be located in cell projection; plasma membrane; and synapse. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; eye; genitourinary system; liver; and nervous system. Orthologous to human ADAM11 (ADAM metallopeptidase domain 11). PHENOTYPE: Mice homozygous for a targeted disruption of this gene are viable and overtly normal but show impaired hippocampus-dependent spatial learning and cerebellum-dependent motor coordination when tested using water maze and rotating rod tasks.
