Integrin alpha-5, also known as ITGA5, is a single-pass type I membrane protein which belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. ITGA5 contains 7 FG-GAP repeats. Alpha chain 5 undergoes post-translational cleavage in the extracellular domain to yield disulfide-linked light and heavy chains that join with beta 1 to form a fibronectin receptor. ITGAV&ITGB6 is a receptor for fibronectin and cytotactin. It recognizes the sequence R-G-D in its ligands. Internalisation of ITGAV&ITGB6 via clathrin-mediated endocytosis promotes carcinoma cell invasion.

Human Cells

A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met 1-Val992) of human ITGAV (P06756-1) was fused with a flag tag at the C-terminus, constructed the plasmid 1; A DNA sequence encoding the extracellular domain (Met1-Asn707) of human ITGB6 (P22646) was fused with a polyhistidine tag at the C-terminus, constructed the plasmid 2. The two plasmids were co-expressed and the human ITGAV&ITGB6 heterodimer was purified.

Human

The recombinant heterodimer of human ITGAV&ITGB6 comprises 1731 (1003+728) amino acids and has a calculated molecular mass of 190.4 (111.1+79.3) KDa. As a result of glycosylation, the apparent molecular mass of human ITGAV&ITGB6 heterodimer is approximately 119 and 89-105 KDa in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions.
