Product Overview
Description | Recombinant Human Integrin α-5 is produced by our Mammalian expression system and the target gene encoding Phe42-Tyr995 is expressed with a 6His tag at the C-terminus. |
Accession | P08648 |
Synonym | Integrin Alpha-5; CD49 Antigen-Like Family Member E; Fibronectin Receptor Subunit Alpha; Integrin Alpha-F; VLA-5; CD49e; ITGA5; FNRA |
Gene Background | Integrin α-5 belongs to the Integrin α chain family and contains 7 FG-GAP repeats. Integrin α-5 joins with Integrin-β1 to form a fibronectin and laminin receptor which 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. It is expressed on fibroblasts, endothelial cells, peripheral T cells and platelets. Integrin α-5 undergoes post-translational cleavage in the extracellular domain to yield disulfide-linked light and heavy chains. In addition to adhesion, ITGA5 participates in cell-surface mediated signalling. |

Target Details
Target Function | Integrin alpha-5/beta-1 (ITGA5:ITGB1) is a receptor for fibronectin and fibrinogen. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in its ligands. ITGA5:ITGB1 binds to PLA2G2A via a site (site 2) which is distinct from the classical ligand-binding site (site 1) and this induces integrin conformational changes and enhanced ligand binding to site 1. ITGA5:ITGB1 acts as a receptor for fibrillin-1 (FBN1) and mediates R-G-D-dependent cell adhesion to FBN1. ITGA5:ITGB1 is a receptor for IL1B and binding is essential for IL1B signaling. ITGA5:ITGB3 is a receptor for soluble CD40LG and is required for CD40/CD40LG signaling.; (Microbial infection) Integrin ITGA5:ITGB1 acts as a receptor for Human metapneumovirus.; (Microbial infection) Integrin ITGA2:ITGB1 acts as a receptor for Human parvovirus B19.; (Microbial infection) In case of HIV-1 infection, the interaction with extracellular viral Tat protein seems to enhance angiogenesis in Kaposi's sarcoma lesions. |
