Background: integrin subunit alpha 5(ITGA5) Homo sapiens The product of this gene belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha subunit and a beta subunit that function in cell surface adhesion and signaling. The encoded preproprotein is proteolytically processed to generate light and heavy chains that comprise the alpha 5 subunit. This subunit associates with the beta 1 subunit to form a fibronectin receptor. This integrin may promote tumor invasion, and higher expression of this gene may be correlated with shorter survival time in lung cancer patients. Note that the integrin alpha 5 and integrin alpha V subunits are encoded by distinct genes. [provided by RefSeq, Oct 2015],

Expression: Liver, Placenta,

Observed Band (KD): 92kD

Fields: Phagosome, PI3K-Akt signaling pathway, Focal adhesion, ECM-receptor interaction, Hematopoietic cell lineage, Regulation of actin cytoskeleton, Bacterial invasion of epithelial cells, Shigellosis, Pertussis, Yersinia infection, Human papillomavirus infection, Herpes simplex virus 1 infection, Proteoglycans in cancer, MicroRNAs in cancer, Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, Arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy, Dilated cardiomyopathy

Function: Function: Integrin alpha-5/beta-1 is a receptor for fibronectin and fibrinogen. It 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
Similarity: Belongs to the integrin alpha chain family
Similarity: Contains 7 FG-GAP repeats
Subunit: Heterodimer of an alpha and a beta subunit. The alpha subunit is composed of an heavy and a light chain linked by a disulfide bond. Alpha-5 associates with beta-1. Interacts with HPS5 and NISCH. Interacts with HIV-1 Tat. Interacts with RAB21
