Adam9 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables SH3 domain binding activity; metalloendopeptidase activity; and protein kinase C binding activity. Involved in several processes, including membrane protein ectodomain proteolysis; positive regulation of membrane protein ectodomain proteolysis; and transforming growth factor beta receptor signaling pathway. Located in cytoplasm; external side of plasma membrane; and extracellular space. Is expressed in foregut-midgut junction. Used to study cone-rod dystrophy 9. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in cone-rod dystrophy 9. Orthologous to human ADAM9 (ADAM metallopeptidase domain 9). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Adam9 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
