Product Specifications

Background

Integrin alpha-5, also known as FNRA or VLA5A, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGA5 gene. The product of this gene belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. Integrins are integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. This gene encodes the integrin alpha 5 chain. Alpha chain 5 undergoes post-translational cleavage in the extracellular domain to yield disulfide-linked light and heavy chains that join with beta 1 to form a fibronectin receptor. In addition to adhesion, integrins are known to participate in cell-surface mediated signalling.

Synonyms

Integrin alpha-5; CD49 antigen-like family member E; Fibronectin receptor subunit alpha; Integrin alpha-F; VLA-5; CD49e; Integrin alpha-5 heavy chain; Integrin alpha-5 light chain; ITGA5; FNRA

Immunogen

E.coli-derived human Integrin alpha 5 recombinant protein (Position: E787-E992) . Human Integrin alpha 5 shares 86% amino acid (aa) sequence identity with mouse Integrin alpha 5.

Clonality

Polyclonal

Tissue Specificity

Expressed in most tissues with highest levels in kidney and heart. Overexpressed in the majority of common human cancers and their metastases, due to the presence of intratumoral hypoxia and as a result of mutations in genes encoding oncoproteins and tumor suppressors. A higher level expression seen in pituitary tumors as compared to the pituitary gland. .

Applications

WB

Field of Research

Cell Adhesion, Cytoskeleton/ECM, Integrins, Signal Transduction

Purification

Immunogen affinity purified.

Concentration

Adding 0.2 ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500 μg/ml.

Form

Lyophilized

Reconstitution

Add 0.2ml of distilled water will yield a concentration of 500ug/ml.

Function

Integrin alpha-5/beta-1 is a receptor for fibronectin and fibrinogen. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in its ligands. In case of HIV-1 infection, the interaction with extracellular viral Tat protein seems to enhance angiogenesis in Kaposi's sarcoma lesions.
