ADAM's have various roles in intercellular adhesion and are thought to function by binding integrins through a 13 amino acid motif called the disintegrin loop. Xenopus laevis sperm express the protein ADAM 16, and peptides with the sequence of its disintegrin loop cause downstream events in eggs tha...
