NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
This gene encodes a member of the ADAMTS (a disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs) protein family. ADAMTS family members share several distinct protein modules, including a propeptide region, a metalloproteinase domain, a disintegrin-like domain, and a thrombospondin type 1 (TS) motif. Individual members of this family differ in the number of C-terminal TS motifs, and some have unique C-terminal domains. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate the mature protein, which may regulate hemostatic balance and function as a tumor suppressor. Mutations in this gene may be associated with microcornea, myopic chorioretinal atrophy, and telecanthus (MMCAT) and cone-rod dystrophy in human patients. [provided by RefSeq, May 2016]
Uniprot Description
ADAMTS18: Defects in ADAMTS18 are the cause of Knobloch syndrome type 2 (KNO2). A developmental disorder primarily characterized by typical eye abnormalities, including high myopia, cataracts, dislocated lens, vitreoretinal degeneration, and retinal detachment, with occipital skull defects, which can range from occipital encephalocele to occult cutis aplasia. 2 isoforms of the human protein are produced by alternative splicing.

Product Notes
The Human ADAMTS18 adamts18 (Catalog #AAA2884412) is an ELISA Kit and is intended for research purposes only. The product is available for immediate purchase. The AAA2884412 ELISA Kit recognizes Human ADAMTS18. It is sometimes possible for the material contained within the vial of "A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 18, ELISA Kit" to become dispersed throughout the inside of the vial, particularly around the seal of said vial, during shipment and storage. We always suggest centrifuging these vials to consolidate all of the liquid away from the lid and to the bottom of the vial prior to opening. Please be advised that certain products may require dry ice for shipping and that, if this is the case, an additional dry ice fee may also be required.Precautions
