Rabbit polyclonal to Integrin beta 5Integrins are important extracellular matrix (ECM) receptor proteins located on cell surfaces. They are hetrodimers composed of an alpha and a beta transmembrane glycoprotein subunit. Around 22 different integrins (different alpha/ beta subunit combinations) are found in nature. Integrins are generally present in high concentrations at the cell surface, but, unlike most other cell-surface receptors, they bind ligands with very low affinity. Due to their weak individual binding, integrins need to cluster and bind in-groups in order to effectively bind the ECM. Integrins bind many different ligands including laminin. Each integrin is made up of a large N-terminal extracellular domain that binds the ECM ligand and a small C-terminal cytoplasmic domain that mediates interaction with the actin cytoskeleton and signaling function.

Tested Applications
ICC/IFIHC-PIPWB
IF: Use at an assay dependent dilution. IHC-P: Use at a dilution of 1/50. Staining of formalin-fixed tissues requires boiling tissue sections in 10 mM citrate, pH 6.0 for 10 min followed by cooling at RT for 20 min. IP: Use at an assay dependent dilution. WB: Use at an assay dependent dilution. Predicted molecular weight: 95.9 kDa. Optimal dilutions/concentrations should be determined by the end user.:
