Description

Mouse monoclonal [44H6] to Integrin alpha 4

Specificity

Recognises the integrin alpha 4 subunit, which associates with either Integrin beta 1 (to form VLA 4) or beta 7. The alpha 4 integrin is a 150 kDa molecule, which may be cleaved to 80 kDa and 70 kDa fragments.

Target

Function

Integrins alpha-4/beta-1 (VLA-4) and alpha-4/beta-7 are receptors for fibronectin. They recognize one or more domains within the alternatively spliced CS-1 and CS-5 regions of fibronectin. They are also receptors for VCAM1. Integrin alpha-4/beta-1 recognizes the sequence Q-I-D-S in VCAM1. Integrin alpha-4/beta-7 is also a receptor for MADCAM1. It recognizes the sequence L-D-T in MADCAM1. On activated endothelial cells integrin VLA-4 triggers homotypic aggregation for most VLA-4-positive leukocyte cell lines. It may also participate in cytolytic T-cell interactions with target cells.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family.
Contains 7 FG-GAP repeats.

Domain

The SG1 motif is involved in binding to chondroitin sulfate glycosaminoglycan and cell adhesion.

Post-translational
modifications

Phosphorylation on Ser-1027 inhibits PXN binding.

Cellular localization

Membrane.
