Integrin α3 Rabbit Polyclonal Antibody

• Background:

  Integrin subunit alpha 3 (ITGA3) Homo sapiens The gene encodes a member of the integrin alpha chain family of proteins. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain that function as cell surface adhesion molecules. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate light and heavy chains that comprise the alpha 3 subunit. This subunit joins with a beta 1 subunit to form an integrin that interacts with extracellular matrix proteins including members of the laminin family. Expression of this gene may be correlated with breast cancer metastasis. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015], function:Integrin alpha-3/beta-1 is a receptor for fibronectin, laminin, collagen, epiligrin, thrombospondin and CSPG4. Alpha-3/beta-1 may mediate with LGALS3 the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration., PTM:Isoform alpha-3A, but not isoform alpha-3B, is phosphorylated on serine residues. Phosphorylation increases after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate stimulation. Isoform alpha-3A is phosphorylated on Tyr-1051., similarity:Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family., similarity:Contains 7 FG-GAP repeats., subunit:Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. The alpha subunit is composed of an heavy and a light chain linked by a disulfide bond. Alpha-3 associates with beta-1. Interacts with HPS5., tissue specificity:Isoform alpha-3A is widely expressed. Isoform alpha-3B is expressed in brain and heart. In brain, both isoforms are exclusively expressed on vascular smooth muscle cells, whereas in heart isoform alpha-3A is strongly expressed on vascular smooth muscle cells, isoform alpha-3B is detected only on endothelial vein cells.
