Target Details for Integrin Alpha2b

Target: Integrin Alpha2b (CD41)

Alternative Name: ITGA2B

Background:

Synonyms: Integrin alpha-IIb,GPalpha IIb,GPIIb,Platelet membrane glycoprotein IIb,CD41,Integrin alpha-IIb heavy chain,Integrin alpha-IIb light chain, form 1,Integrin alpha-IIb light chain, form 2,ITGA2B,GP2B, ITGAB,

Tissue Specificity: Isoform 1 and isoform 2 were identified in platelets and megakaryocytes, but not in reticulocytes or in Jurkat and U-937 white blood cell line. Isoform 3 is expressed by leukemia, prostate adenocarcinoma and melanoma cells but not by platelets or normal prostate or breast epithelial cells.

Background: Integrin alpha-IIb is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGA2B gene. It is mapped to 17q21.32. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. Alpha chain 2b undergoes post-translational cleavage to yield disulfide-linked light and heavy chains that join with beta 3 to form a fibrinogen receptor expressed in platelets that plays a crucial role in coagulation. Mutations that interfere with this role result in thrombasthenia. In addition to adhesion, integrins are known to participate in cell-surface mediated signalling.

Sequence Similarities: Contains 1 HMG box DNA-binding domain.

Molecular Weight: 120-135 kDa
