This gene encodes a member of a family of proteins containing several distinct regions, including a metalloproteinase domain, a disintegrin-like domain, and a thrombospondin type 1 (TS) motif.
The enzyme encoded by this gene specifically cleaves von Willebrand Factor (vWF).
Defects in this gene are associated with thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura.
Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.
Applications:Suitable for use in Western Blot and Immunofluorescence.
Other applications not tested.
Recommended Dilution:Western Blot: 1:500-1:2000Immunofluorescence: 1:50-1:200 Optimal dilutions to be determined by the researcher.
