Anti-Integrin alpha V/ITGAV Antibody Picoband® Fluoro488 Conjugated
Product Specifications
Background
Integrin alpha-V is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGAV gene. It is a member of the beta 3 integrin subfamily (cytoadhesins) . The human locus for the av gene (VNRA) was previously mapped to the long arm of chromosome 2. Sims et al. (2000) localized the VNRA gene to 2q31. The gene contains 30 exons and spans over 93 kb of genomic DNA. It functions as a receptor for a group of proteins that includes vitronectin, fibrinogen, thrombospondin, and von Willebrand factor.

Function
The alpha-2/delta subunit of voltage-dependent calcium channels regulates calcium current density and activation/inactivation kinetics of the calcium channel. Acts as a regulatory subunit for P/Q-type calcium channel (CACNA1A), N-type (CACNA1B), L-type (CACNA1C OR CACNA1D) and possibly T-type (CACNA1G) . Overexpression induces apoptosis.
