NCIt definition : Human ADAM33 wild-type allele is located in the vicinity of 20p13 and is approximately
14 kb in length. This allele, which encodes disintegrin and metalloproteinase domain-containing
protein 33, plays a role in metallopeptidase activity. Variation in the gene is associated
with increased susceptibility to asthma and bronchial hyperresponsiveness.;
