Integrin alpha 6/CD49f Antibody [Unconjugated]

Western blot shows lysates of human kidney tissue. PVDF membrane was probed with 1 ug/mL of Goat Anti-Human Integrin a6/CD49f Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1350) followed by HRP-conjugated Anti-Goat IgG Secondary Antibody (Catalog # HAF019). A specific band was detected for Integrin a6/CD49f at approximately 140 kDa (as indicated). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using Immunoblot Buffer Group 8.

Simple Western shows lysates of Exosome Standards (PC‑3) (NBP2-49856) and human kidney tissue, loaded at 0.5 mg/ml. A specific band was detected for Integrin alpha 6/CD49f at approximately 163 kDa (as indicated) using 10 µg/mL of Goat Anti-Human Integrin alpha 6/CD49f Antigen Affinity-purified Polyclonal Antibody (Catalog # AF1350). This experiment was conducted under reducing conditions and using the 66-440kDa separation system.

Background

Integrin alpha 6 (also VLA-6, CD49F and ITA6) is a 130‑150 kDa member of the integrin alpha chain family of molecules. Mature Integrin  alpha 6 is a 1107 amino acid (aa) type I transmembrane glycoprotein that contains a 1027 aa extracellular region and a 93 aa cytoplasmic tail The ECD is cleaved to generate a disulfide-linked dimer that shows a 125 kDa heavy chain (aa 24‑938), and a 30‑31 kDa membrane-bound light chain (aa 942‑1130). Integrin alpha 6 forms a nondisulfide-linked heterodimeric complex with both integrin beta 1 and beta 4. Each complex serves as a receptor for laminin. Splice variants exist that show either a deletion of aa 215‑258 or a deletion of aa 260‑298, possibly accompanied by a 29 aa substitution for aa 1084‑1130. Over aa 93‑148 and 518‑574, human Integrin alpha 6 shares 89% aa identity with mouse Integrin alpha 6.
