Rabbit Anti-Human Integrin beta 1/CD29 Clone Poly6004 Affinity Purified pAb

Integrin beta1 also known as integrin VLA-4 beta chain, fibronectin receptor beta chain, and CD29) is a 90 kD integrin beta chain containing VWFA-like domains. Five isoforms have been reported (beta1A-1D, 1C-2). This Type I membrane protein is a subunit of the heterodimeric receptor for laminin, fibronectin, collagen, fibrinogen, VCAM1, cytotactin, osteopontin, epiligrin, thrombospondin, and vitronectin. Signal transduction through the integrins affects embryogenesis, hemostasis, tissue repair, immune response, and metastatic spread of tumor cells. Integrin beta1 can be upregulated by LPS with soluble CD14 and TNF-alpha, downregulation of integrin beta1 by alpha-melanocyte stimulating hormone and progesterone. Integrin beta1 is modified by phosphorylation and glycosylation. Integrin beta1 partners with integrin alpha subunits alphav, and alpha1 through alpha1.1. The Poly6004 antibody recognizes the N-terminal region of human integrin beta1 and has been shown to be useful for Western blot.
