It has an approximate mass of 130 kDa. This protein mainly expresses in various tissues including fibroblasts endothelial cells and certain epithelial cells. Integrin alpha 5 mediates cell adhesion by binding to fibronectin an important extracellular matrix protein helping cells stay attached to their surrounding environment.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nIntegrin alpha 5 plays a significant role in cellular processes such as migration proliferation and differentiation. It pairs with beta 1 integrin to form the alpha 5 beta 1 integrin complex. This complex facilitates the transmission of mechanical and chemical signals between the extracellular matrix and the cell interior. Integrin alpha 5 also interacts with intracellular proteins like talin and kindlin which are essential for initiating and strengthening the linkage to the actin cytoskeleton.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nIntegrin alpha 5 is involved in the regulation of several critical signaling pathways. It prominently features within the MAPK\/ERK pathway and the focal adhesion signaling pathway. Through these pathways integrin alpha 5 influences cell survival proliferation and migration. It interacts with proteins such as paxillin and focal adhesion kinase (FAK) within these pathways contributing to cellular responses to external stimuli.\u003cbr\u003e\nIntegrin alpha 5 is linked to conditions such as cancer and fibrosis. Overexpression or aberrant regulation of this integrin often associates with tumorigenesis particularly in breast and colorectal cancers enhancing cancer cell migration and invasion. Integrin alpha 5 is also connected to proteins like matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) which play roles in extracellular matrix remodeling and are involved in fibrotic diseases. These associations highlight the importance of integrin alpha 5 in pathological processes and its potential as a target for therapeutic intervention.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46855390232745,"sku":"ab25189","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/abcam-ab25189","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
