Homo sapiens : Alpha-5 / Beta-3 integrin
|
Molecular structure of :Alpha-5 / Beta-3 integrin
| Homo sapiens
|
| Lecster ID:333 | Edit Entry |
| Source Organism: | |
| Species: | Homo sapiens |
| Common Nomenclature: | Alpha-5 / Beta-3 integrin |
| Class: | Integrin A (or I) domain |
| Index Nomenclature: | INTh.Hom.Sap.xx.Xxxx |
| Characterization Notes: | AlphaV/beta3 is a receptor for fibrinogen, fibronectin, von Willebrand's factor, Vitronectin, Tsp (Thrombospondin), osteopontin and Bsp1 (bone sialoprotein 1). It is expressed on endothelial cells, some B-cells, platelets and monocytes. alphaVb-beta3 mediates platelet aggregation and endothelial cell adhesion to ECM proteins. This integrin is also known as VNR (vitronectin receptor) |
