| Biochem/physiol Actions: | Adam7 resides in an intracellular compartment of epididymal cells and is transferred to sperm membranes, where its levels are dependent on the expression of Adam2 and Adam3, which play critical roles in fertilization. It functions in fertilization through the formation of a chaperone complex and enhances association with integral membrane protein 2B (Itm2b) during capacitation in sperm. It also helps in the maturation of sperm cells in mammals and also plays a unique secretory feature and interactive relationship with sperm. |

| General description: | ADAM7 (ADAM metallopeptidase domain 7) gene encodes a single-pass type I membrane protein that belongs to ADAMs family of zinc proteases and is expressed in melanoma cells. It has a role in epididymosomes and is an integral plasma membrane protein in sperm that has unique secretory feature and interactive relationship during epididymis-to-sperm transfer process. Mutation in ADAM7 gene results in melanoma progression. |
