Integrin alpha 3 Antibody

• Description:

  ITGA3 (Integrin alpha 3), also called CD49C, VLA3 or GAPB3, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGA3 gene. It is an integrin alpha subunit which is also a member of the family of cell surface adhesion molecules. It is mapped to chromosome 17 and its exact cytogenetic location is 17q21.33. ITGA3 makes up half of the alpha3beta1 integrin duplex that plays a role in neural migration and corticogenesis together with beta-1 subunit. A functional link between DAB1 phosphorylation and ITGA3 signaling drives the timely detachment of migrating neurons from radial glial fibers. Expression of the human protein increased the infectivity of virus for Chinese hamster ovary cells. ITGA3 also contains 13 potential N-glycosylation sites, two potential cleavage sites, and the the N-terminal repeating units characteristic of ITGAs.
