Predicted to enable heparin binding activity and metalloendopeptidase activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to hormone stimulus; cellular response to vitamin D; and tooth eruption. Located in collagen-containing extracellular matrix. Biomarker of brain ischemia; myocardial infarction; transient cerebral ischemia; ureteral obstruction; and visual epilepsy. Orthologous to human ADAMTS1 (ADAM metallopeptidase with thrombospondin type 1 motif 1). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
