Characteristics |
Human ITGA6&ITGB1 Heterodimer Protein, His Tag&Tag Free, produced by co-expression of ITGA6 and ITGB1, has a calculated MW of 116.8 kDa (ITGA6) and 83.7 kDa (ITGB1). Subunit ITGA6 is fused with an acidic tail at the C-terminus and followed by a polyhistidine tag and subunit ITGB1 contains no tag but a basic tail at the C-terminus. The non-reducing (NR) protein migrates as 140-150 kDa (ITGA6) and 100-118 kDa (ITGB1) respectively due to glycosylation. |

Description |
Integrin alpha 6 beta 1, also called platelet glycoprotein GPIc-IIa, is a receptor for laminin on platelets. The ITGA6 protein product is the integrin alpha chain alpha 6. Integrins are integral cell-surface proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. A given chain may combine with multiple partners resulting in different integrins. For example, alpha 6 may combine with beta 4 in the integrin referred to as TSP180, or with beta 1 in the integrin VLA-6. Integrins are known to participate in cell adhesion as well as cell-surface mediated signalling. ITGA6 has been shown to interact with TSPAN4 and GIPC1. |
