Itgae

The integrin I-domain (insert) is a VWFA domain. Integrins with I-domains do not undergo protease cleavage.

The protein expressed by the ITGAE gene, known as integrin alpha-E/beta-7, functions as a receptor for E-cadherin and mediates the adhesion of intra-epithelial T-lymphocytes to epithelial cell monolayers. This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family.

Expressed on a subclass of T-lymphocytes known as intra-epithelial lymphocytes which are located between mucosal epithelial cells.
