Target

  • Function

    Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 is a receptor for laminin on platelets. Integrin alpha-6/beta-4 is a receptor for laminin in epithelial cells and it plays a critical structural role in the hemidesmosome (By similarity). ITGA6:ITGB4 binds to NRG1 (via EGF domain) and this binding is essential for NRG1-ERBB signaling (PubMed:20682778). ITGA6:ITGB4 binds to IGF1 and this binding is essential for IGF1 signaling (PubMed:22351760).
  • Tissue specificity

    Integrin alpha-6/beta-4 is predominantly expressed by epithelia. Isoforms containing segment X1 are ubiquitously expressed. Isoforms containing segment X1X2 are expressed in heart, kidney, placenta, colon, duodenum, myoblasts and myotubes, and in a limited number of cell lines; they are always coexpressed with the ubiquitous isoform containing segment X1. In some tissues (e.g. Salivary gland), isoforms containing cytoplasmic segment A and isoforms containing segment B are detected while in others, only isoforms containing one cytoplasmic segment are found (segment A in epidermis and segment B in kidney).
  • Involvement in disease

    Epidermolysis bullosa letalis, with pyloric atresia
  • Sequence similarities

    Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family.
    Contains 7 FG-GAP repeats.
  • Post-translational
    modifications

    Isoforms containing segment A, but not segment B, are the major targets for PMA-induced phosphorylation. Phosphorylation occurs on 'Ser-1103' of isoform alpha-6X1X2A. Phosphorylation is not required for the induction of integrin alpha-6A/beta-1 high affinity but may reduce the affinity for ligand.

The secondary antibody used was a goat anti-mouse DyLight® 488 (IgG; H+L) (ab96879) at 1/500 dilution for 30 min at 22°C. Isotype control antibody (black line) was mouse IgG2b [PLPV219] (ab91366, 2µg/1x106 cells) used under the same conditions. Acquisition of >5,000 events was performed. This antibody gave a positive signal in HT1080 cells fixed with methanol (5 min) used under the same conditions.

    Question

    I am using the antibody ab20142 in human tissue sections,but it seems does not work. SoI am trying to find some pictures other people did with this antibody. In the data sheet, it shows in these papaers PubMed: 17370299, PubMed: 10679006and PubMed: 7674085theauthorsused this product. But unfortunately, I can not find anyfigure that showing theIHC result, and some of them just usedthis antibodyfor FACS many years ago. So, could youhelp me to find aIHC staining inrecent literatures? If you show that one on your web site, please let me knowwhich paper it comes from.

    Asked on Apr 27 2012

    Answer

    Thank you for contacting Abcam.

    I am sorry that you are having some issues with ab20142well, the only image we have of it being used in IHC-P is from an Abreview and that information can be found below:

    https://www.abcam.com/Integrin-alpha-6-antibody-MP-4F10-ab20142.html&tab=abreviews&intabreviewid=24332

    The antibody is covered under our Abpromise for six months and is guaranteed to work in IHC-P on human samples . If we cannot resolve the issue you are having with the antibody then I would be happy to either send a replacement antibody or to process a refund. To be able to better help in this matter, could you please send me a copy of the protocol that you are using, to see if there is anything I can suggest that will help.

    Looking forward to your reply and helping resolve this issue.

    Answer

    Thank you very much for contacting us - and sending the enquiry as a table. That clear overview was very helpful :-) As you may know, we have not tested the individual samples for their expression of the mentioned targets. However, according to the literature and other sources such as http://www.proteinatlas.org/ these tissues exhibit high expression of these proteins and thus are suitable controls.

However, we do not currently have an image of ab10800, ab16821, ab30483, ab16822, and ab78289 in IHC-P. Therefore, I can offer a discount off a future purchase if you buy one of these antibodies now, use it IHC-P and submit an image of your results to us in the form of an Abreview. The discount would be to the value of 1 free primary antibody each. If you decide to go ahead and purchase this product, please contact our Scientific Support team prior to the purchase for more details. I hope this information is helpful to you. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you need any further advice or information in this regard.
