U-Blot® ITA9 Rabbit mAb

Background：integrin subunit alpha 9 (ITGA9) Homo sapiens This gene encodes an alpha integrin. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane glycoproteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain that mediate cell-cell and cell-matrix adhesion. The protein encoded by this gene , when bound to the beta 1 chain , forms an integrin that is a receptor for VCAM1 , cytotactin and osteopontin. Expression of this gene has been found to be upregulated in small cell lung cancers. [provided by RefSeq , Jul 2008] ,
