anti-CD49c / Integrin alpha 3 antibody [P1B5] (FITC)
anti-CD49c / Integrin alpha 3 antibody [P1B5] (FITC) for Flow cytometry,ICC/IF and Human
Overview
| Product Description | FITC-conjugated Mouse Monoclonal antibody [P1B5] recognizes CD49c / Integrin alpha 3. This product recognizes CD49c, a 150 kDa cell surface antigen which is also known as the alpha-3 integrin and as VLA-3. CD49c is very weakly expressed on peripheral blood leucocytes and is not found on platelets. Epithelial cells and endothelial cells express significant levels of CD49c. |

| Gene Symbol | ITGA3 |
| Gene Full Name | integrin, alpha 3 (antigen CD49C, alpha 3 subunit of VLA-3 receptor) |
| Background | The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the family of integrins. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain, and function as cell surface adhesion molecules. This gene encodes alpha 3 subunit, which undergoes post-translational cleavage in the extracellular domain to yield disulfide-linked light and heavy chains that join with beta 1 subunit to form an integrin that interacts with many extracellular-matrix proteins. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been identified for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2008] |
| Function | Integrin alpha-3/beta-1 is a receptor for fibronectin, laminin, collagen, epiligrin, thrombospondin and CSPG4. Integrin alpha-3/beta-1 provides a docking site for FAP (seprase) at invadopodia plasma membranes in a collagen-dependent manner and hence may participate in the adhesion, formation of invadopodia and matrix degradation processes, promoting cell invasion. Alpha-3/beta-1 may mediate with LGALS3 the stimulation by CSPG4 of endothelial cells migration. [UniProt] |
| Calculated MW | 117 kDa |
| PTM | Isoform 1, but not isoform 2, is phosphorylated on serine residues. Phosphorylation increases after phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate stimulation. [UniProt] |
