Description: Integrin alpha-5, also known as FNRA or VLA5A, is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ITGA5 gene. The product of this gene belongs to the integrin alpha chain family. Integrins are integral membrane proteins composed of an alpha chain and a beta chain. This gene encodes the integrin alpha 5 chain. 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. In addition to adhesion, integrins are known to participate in cell-surface mediated signalling.

Immunogen: Human partial recombinant protein (AA 787-992) was used as the immunogen for this Integrin alpha 5 antibody. Human Integrin alpha 5 shares 86% amino acid sequence identity with mouse Integrin alpha 5.

Storage: The lyophilized Integrin alpha 5 antibody can be stored at 4oC to -20 °C. After reconstitution, aliquot and store at -20 °C. Avoid repeated freeze/thaws.
