Facts about A disintegrin and metalloproteinase with thrombospondin motifs 5.
Cleavage within the hyalectans happens at Glu-Xaa recognition motifs. Plays a role in embryonic development, such as limb and cardiac morphogenesis, and skeletal muscle development through its versican remodeling properties.
