| Purity |
> 95% as determined by Tris-Bis PAGE |
| Accession |
P23229-2 (ITGA6) & P05556-1 (ITGB1) |
| Target Symbol |
Integrin ITGA6&ITGB1 Heterodimer |
| Synonyms |
Integrin alpha 6 beta 1; ITGA6&ITGB1 |
| Species |
Human |
| Expression System |
HEK293 |
| Tag |
C-His-Avi |
| Expression Range |
Phe24-Gly1012 (ITGA6) acidic tail & GIn21-Asp728 (ITGB1) basic tail |
| Mol. Weight |
The protein has a predicted MW of 117.9 kDa (ITGA6) and 83.2 kDa (ITGB1). Due to glycosylation, the protein migrates to 140-160 kDa (ITGA6) and 110-150 kDa (ITGB1) under Non reducing (N) condition based on Tris-Bis PAGE result. |
| Form |
Lyophilized |
| Formulation |
Lyophilized from 0.22 um filtered solution in PBS (pH 7.4). Normally 8% trehalose is added as protectant before lyophilization. |
| Endotoxin |
Less than 1 EU per ug by the LAL method. |
| Storage |
Reconstituted protein stable at -80°C for 12 months, 4°C for 1 week. Use a manual defrost freezer and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
| Shipping |
Shipped at ambient temperature. |
| Gene Background |
Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 (ITGA6:ITGB1) is a receptor for laminin on platelets. Integrin alpha-6/beta-1 (ITGA6:ITGB1) is present in oocytes and is involved in sperm-egg fusion. Integrin alpha-6/beta-4 (ITGA6:ITGB4) is a receptor for laminin in epithelial cells and it plays a critical structural role in the hemidesmosome (By similarity). ITGA6:ITGB4 binds to NRG1 (via EGF domain) and this binding is essential for NRG1-ERBB signaling |
