Immunogens

Immunogen:

A synthetic peptide from human ITGA2

Uniprot:
Gene(ID):
Description:
This gene encodes the alpha subunit of a transmembrane receptor for collagens and related proteins. The encoded protein forms a heterodimer with a beta subunit and mediates the adhesion of platelets and other cell types to the extracellular matrix. Loss of the encoded protein is associated with bleeding disorder platelet-type 9. Antibodies against this protein are found in several immune disorders,including neonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia. This gene is located adjacent to a related alpha subunit gene. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants.

Research Backgrounds

Function:

Integrin alpha-2/beta-1 is a receptor for laminin, collagen, collagen C-propeptides, fibronectin and E-cadherin. It recognizes the proline-hydroxylated sequence G-F-P-G-E-R in collagen. It is responsible for adhesion of platelets and other cells to collagens, modulation of collagen and collagenase gene expression, force generation and organization of newly synthesized extracellular matrix.

(Microbial infection) Integrin ITGA2:ITGB1 acts as a receptor for Human rotavirus A.

(Microbial infection) Integrin ITGA2:ITGB1 acts as a receptor for Human echoviruses 1 and 8.

Subcellular Location:

Family&Domains:

The integrin I-domain (insert) is a VWFA domain. Integrins with I-domains do not undergo protease cleavage.

Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family.
