Primary antibody notes

Integrin alpha 5 is a heterodimer that associates noncovalently with CD29/integrin beta 1 subunit to form the alpha-5-beta-1 very late antigen (VLA-5) complex. VLA-5 is a fibronectin receptor that is expressed on thymocytes, T-cells, monocytes and platelets. It is also found on very early B-cells and activated B-cells. VLA-5-mediated binding to fibronectin sends a costimulatory signal to T-cells and enhances Fc-gamma-R- and complement receptor-mediated phago-cytosis. It is also involved in monocyte migration into extracellular tissues.

The application notes include recommended starting dilutions; optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.

Target

Function

Integrin alpha-5/beta-1 is a receptor for fibronectin and fibrinogen. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in its ligands. In case of HIV-1 infection, the interaction with extracellular viral Tat protein seems to enhance angiogenesis in Kaposi's sarcoma lesions.

Sequence similarities

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

Cellular localization

Membrane.

ab6131 staining Integrin alpha 5 in Human synovial fibroblasts by Flow Cytometry. Cells were detached by accutase, spun and fixed in 1,5 % formalin for 10 min.  Gating was done on synovial fibroblasts. The  sample was incubated with the primary antibody, dilution 1/500 (1% BSA in PBS), for 20 minutes at 25°C.  A PE-conjugated Goat polyclonal to mouse IgG, dilution 1/200, was used as secondary antibody. The flow cytometry plot is an overlay of the isotype control ( IgG2b, red peak) with the sample (white peak); (equal amounts of isotype IgG2b and antibody were used).
