Homomeric and heteromeric interactions between the αIIb and β3 transmembrane domains are involved in the regulation of integrin αIIbβ3 function. These domains appear to interact in the inactivated ...

Researchers at Tampere University, Finland, have published new results in collaboration with an international research network that help to understand the biological phenomena mediated by cell ...

Johns Hopkins University biologists have found that a protein that plays a key role in the lives of stem cells can bolster the growth of damaged muscle tissue, a step that could potentially contribute ...

Integrins are heterodimer transmembrane receptors for the extracellular matrix composed of an alpha and beta subunit. Natural integrin ligands include laminin, fibronectin, and vitronectin, but they ...

Protein evolution occurs slowly via small incremental mutations—usually. However, dramatic changes can happen: for instance, a fragment of one protein getting copied into the middle of another. While ...
