  • Description: CD49b is an integrin alpha subunit which makes up half of the Î?2Î?1 integrin duplex. Integrins are heterodimeric integral membrane glycoproteins composed of a distinct alpha chain and a common beta chain. They are found on a wide variety of cell types including, T cells (the NKT cells), NK cells, fibroblasts and platelets. Integrins are involved in cell adhesion and also participate in cell-surface mediated signalling.
  • Immunogen: Purified human beta 1 preparation from HT1080 fibrosarcoma cell extract.
  • Isotype: IgG1
  • Research area: Cell biology; Cell signaling and signal transduction; Immunology
  • Myeloma used: P3X63Ag8.653

  • For Research Use Only
